The rain started right before game time and didn't let up until the 2nd half. Both teams got off to a slow start with neither team really having to many scoring opportunities in the 1st half.
The 2nd half was a little better with Poway almost coming through on a cross from Eric Budniewski that was just pushed wide by Fredy Cedillo. We did have one more opportunity late in the game when Sean Gallagher headed a corner kick just wide of the far post. The game ended in a 0-0 tie.
Our next game will be Friday against one of the top teams in the county, Hilltop. Game time is 6:00pm

San Clemente Game Update - 12-03-2011
Playing the defending CIF champions Poway felt confident entering the game that they would be up to the challenge. Unfortunately, less than 20 minutes into the game, four of our players had received yellow cards. Some would be considered questionable, but that's the way it goes sometimes.. Coach Gene has told the boys he is taking a position early in the year to not risk any players receiving red cards and potentially jeopardizing their play for later in the year and we ended up playing the game with numerous starters sitting on the bench for a majority of the time.
There was outstanding play by Philip Bru and Spencer Orr in goal to keep the game at a 3-0. We did not advance out of bracket play.

Southwest Game Update - 12-02-2011
In Poway's second game of the year, once again our defense proved worthy notching their second straight shutout to start the season but unfortunately, Southwest's defense was up to the challenge and hung a shut out on our team as well.
Southwest has played three game and given up one goal on the year and played excellent defense against a Poway team missing several key offensive starters

Eastlake Game Update - 11-30-2011
Poway came out for their first game of the year and although missing some starters, came out victorious by the score of 2-0. Philip Bru made some nice saves in goal and the entire defense started off where they ended last year by recording their first shut out of the year.
