I was going to capture the "last" version of the charts before the seedings were announced sometime later today. I noticed a few games had not been included, so I went over to Maxpreps to check those scores. When I got back to cifsds.org, the data was all gone. Must be a policy thing - the basketball charts are empty also.
 
Congrats coach on your win. Just glad to keep you guys from the double, also heard the bball game was intense last night. A good rivalry.

Did the weather play a role in the final score?
 
Did the weather play a role in the final score?

Poway scored 15 minutes in when the RB keeper made a short punt and it was first-time-kicked right back by him, so maybe wet ball or field had an effect there. RB's first-half goal was after the ball crossed back and forth in front of the Poway goal several times, and their winner was a 40-yard right-side upper-90 with the keeper a little off his line. The wind seemed to be a big issue in the JV game before, but not so much in the Varsity game (and I was wet and cold so I left before the girls game).

Boys Open Playoff results 2-21-17

1 St Augustine 2
8 San Pasqual 1

2 Coronado 1
7 Poway 0

3 Torrey Pines 1
6 Oceanside 2

4 Point Loma 4
5 Cathedral Catholic 0

Oceanside upset Torrey Pines; all the other games followed seeding.

I rose out of a sickbed to go to the Poway-Coronado game. Coronado's goal came early in the second half - a shot from outside deflected just out of the keeper's reach by a diving header.

Later in the game on a Poway throwin, a Coronado defender launched himself into the air in the penalty area to head the ball away by placing both hands on a Poway attacker's shoulders. The Poway player couldn't get off the ground. The referee ignored the putative foul, and was about to award a goal kick until the AR at that end pointed out it should be a corner kick.

I fought off my cold long enough to work the scoreboard for the Poway-Pt Loma game. The 4-1 score doesn't tell how close the game was. Poway didn't get the second goal until well into the second half. For most of the game, Pt Loma ruled the midfield, stealing passes and making plays up to the penalty area, where they shot long and wide. They only had one clean close shot, and the shooter put it right into the keeper's hands. Poway scored on quick strikes - a 20-yard free kick save and rebound, a 40-yard free kick redirected as it came down to the ground, and then two nice combinations that found an open player up close. Pt Loma's lone goal came after the 2-minute clock shutdown - a long high shot that just cleared under the crossbar.

The press box where I work these games is on the visitor side for soccer (home side for all other sports, I think) so I get to listen to and talk to visiting parents. At a recent Palomar League game (I won't be more specific than that), one parent was so loudly obnoxious that the other parents started yelling at him that he was an embarrassment. The Pt Loma group was cool, though - a result of beach life?
