The Port Moody Gunners have reeled off five straight wins following a slow start to the men's premier league soccer season.
Issac Mendoza notched his 13th goal of the season to help the Gunners snuff out SFC Temple United 4-0 Monday. Vaughn Andrews scored his sixth goal in five games for the Gunners who also got scoring from Russ Huggon and U21 call-up David Suh. Chris Lourenco got the shutout.
Luorenco saved a breakaway a minute into the game on his way to a 5-0 shutout over SFC Guildford Saturday. Mendoza and Huggon each supplied two goals and a pair of assists with Andrews rounding out the scoring.
After a 1-2 start to the season the Gunners have improved to 7-3 and will take aim at first place when they tackle North Delta Friday night.
The CMFSC U12 Renegades are in the midst of another modest winning streak two weeks after suffering their first loss of the season.
The Renegades blanked the PoCo Dynamite 1-0 Sunday at Gates Park in Port Coquitlam. Diana Emelianova recorded a clean sheet in the Renegades goal while Olivia Gallina converted a pass from Claudia Carbone for the game's only goal.
Carbone supplied the only goal in the Renegades' 1-0 win over the Mission Hearts on Nov. 3. Emelianova kept Mission off the scoresheet.
The U12 Poco Strikers went unbeaten at the WVSC Remembrance Day Classic in West Vancouver.
Liam Wheeler scored the lone goal in a 1-0 win over the North Van Mavericks. Miles Rusk picked up the shutout.
Rusk was again unbeatable in a 4-0 win over ICSF Roma. Jacob Brown notched a pair with other goals supplied by Nicholas Garofalo and Wheeler. Brown, Garofalo, Marco Bronfen and Matthew Lew-Henriksen provided the offence in a 4-2 win over the North Van Riptides.
