Anacortes, WA — On a sunny afternoon, the Anacortes Seahawks boys' soccer team faced a tough match against the Lynden Lions, ending in a 1-1 draw. The game was full-on from the start, with both teams pushing hard and creating chances. Anacortes got on the scoreboard first with Riley Walgamott's goal, thanks to Owen Jacobson's assist. But Lynden fought back, using their physical style to score a header from a corner kick before the break. The second half was a tough slog, with the Seahawks having to dig deep. Neither side really got a grip on the ball, which played into Lynden's hands because of their physical approach. But the Seahawks' defense was up for the challenge. Cooper Barton and Owen Jacobson were solid at the back, keeping things tight. Max Adams did a great job keeping Lynden's top threat under wraps. Wesley Bryant and Jack Eckhardt were everywhere, supporting the defense from the wings and making sure Lynden's attacks didn't get through. This strong team effort in defense helped the Seahawks hold on to the draw. It's a positive sign as they head into conference play, starting with a home game against Oak Harbor on Wednesday. This match against Lynden showed the team's fighting spirit and ability to stand up to physical pressure, something they'll build on for the rest of the season.
