Francisco Urenda scored in the fourth minute of the game Tuesday as Cibola won 2-0 against Kofa, which entered the game fifth in AIA Power Points.

The Raiders, who started the night 22nd in power points with the top 16 making the soccer playoffs, added an insurance goal in the 50th minute. Edgar Gastelum kicked a long free kick, headed in by Joshua Garcia.

“We gave a great team effort,” coach Mike Fritz said. “We did a real good job of limiting Kofa's chances.”

Kofa coach Jamie Nicewander said Cibola outfouled Kofa 18-7 and that the Kings outshot the Raiders 12-3.

“It wasn't a must win (Tuesday), but now Thursday (against Yuma High) is a must win, or at least a must tie,” Nicewander said. “But me and my guys want to win every day, so it's disappointing from that perspective. And unfortunately we saw a lot of what we've seen all year, which is hack, hack, hack.”

Penalty kick lifts Hawks

Gila Ridge scored the game's only goal on a penalty kick early in the second half in a 1-0 win against Yuma High.

“Some were shots, some were balls that just danced in front of the net,” Chamberlain said. “It was just one of those days where it was better to be better lucky than good. Not for us, obviously.”
