Coach predicts more wins in second half of the season By EMILY HANSON emily@mas~oneounty.com The Shelton boys' soccer team split its games before spring break. On March 27, the High- climbers lost at South Kit- sap 2-0. "We lost but the score doesn't reflect the game at all because we played a complete game, we just couldn't score at all," said SHS head boys' soccer coach Isaiah Herrera. "The guys controlled the game." On March 29, the High- climbers defeated Mt. Ta- homa 1-0 at Oakland Bay Junior High. Senior Mike Bowman scored the lone Shelton Mike Bowman goal. " W e moved the ball well and played well," Her- rera Said. "Our big thing right now is we've got to score." D u e to spring break, the team had nearly two weeks off and is sched- uled to hit the field at 7 p.m. tonight at home against Stadium. "I'm expecting Stadium to be fast-paced," Herrera said. "They're a very hard- tackling team but our guys can match that, we've just got to score." He said this will be a difficult game for the High- climbers. With the season" now halfway over, Herrera said the team has gained experi- enced on the field, improved its defense and recognized its difficulty scoring as its main weakness. "We now have the con- fidence to play against any team," Herrera said. He said the second half of 2he season will be differ- ent and a lot more fun to watch. "The guys will have a lot more fun on the field because the pressure won't be there and that should result in more wins for us," Herrera said.

Athlete Continued from page B-7 butes that more to the rid- er than to the bike they're on. "No one thinks about how hard it is until they do a lap around the track," Schnitzer said. She said she enjoys mo- torcross because it's a way to get away. She races in- dependently and said the nearest track is Straddle- line in Olympia. Outside of motorcross and playing fastpitch, Schnitzer said she usually maintains a B average at SHS, where she is also a member of the DECA club. She is currently look- ing into attending either South Puget Sound Com- munity College or Olympic College next year on her way to becoming a dental hygen.ist. "The hardest part of becoming a dental hygen- ist will be getting all of the school out of the way," she said. To become a dental hyg- enist, Schnitzer said she'll have to complete a two- year associate's degree and then attend a dental hygenist program for two to three years. She added that she doesn't want to become a dentist because it takes too long. "I will enjoy the hours because dental hygenists usually only work three days a week," Schnitzer said. Though she's not sure if she]l continue playing fastpitch, Schnitzer said she knows she will con- tinue riding motorcross, though not professionally. "I do motorcross for fun 'and because it's a family bonding thing," she said. "Being pro is for my broth- er and my dad." When she's not in school, on the field or on the track, Schnitzer said : : she's win'king : .a~ ~lLynch Creek Floral. : "I love working there," she said. "It's so fun and everyone's so nice."
