SANTA ROSA >> Both the Kelseyville High School varsity and junior varsity boys soccer teams found themselves on the wrong end of 4-0 scores to Elsie Allen High School during non-league action Monday in Santa Rosa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In varsity action, Elsie Allen pulled away with a three-goal outburst in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cElsie was absolutely the better team tonight,\u201d Kelseyville head coach KC White said. \u201cThey deserved the W more than we did. I always try to find the positive in a game, but it\u2019s difficult for this particular game.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One bright spot was the play off the bench of Manny Arias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I subbed him in about halfway through the first half, he brought a physicality that was much needed,\u201d White said. \u201cI\u2019m happy to see his improvement over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

White also praised the effort of Jose Sanchez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJose is a senior playing soccer for the first time,\u201d White said. \u201cHe played well, and he will only improve as the season progresses.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Knights (0-1-1) started strong before faltering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thought we played well the first 25 minutes of the game, but then our own mistakes caught up with us,\u201d White said. \u201cWe aren\u2019t at full strength right now, but that\u2019s no excuse. I feel confident in the group that I have that we can compete in every game. However, there are things that we aren\u2019t doing that we need to do to improve our game. There\u2019s potential there. Luckily it isn\u2019t even Thanksgiving yet, so there\u2019s a lot of time to make improvements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kelseyville returns to action Dec. 3 against Pierce in Arbuckle. The varsity girls play at 3 p.m. and the boys follow at 5 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will be road warriors this season due to our field being under construction,\u201d White said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior varsity<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kelseyville\u2019s green JV squad allowed two goals in each half of its season opener.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOn the surface it would appear that this decision was a rough one for us, but considering this was the first ever soccer game for a lot of my students, I was happy with the effort,\u201d White said. \u201cWe made three costly mistakes tonight, which resulted in three of the four goals for the other team. A couple of those errors were because of inexperience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though trailing 2-0 at halftime, the Knights came out with a lot of fight in the second half, according to White.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe came out really strong in the second half and could have easily pulled level had the ball bounced our way,\u201d White said.  \u201cI was extremely impressed with the play of Jose Juarez and Jake Smart tonight. Jose is a junior. He has some experience playing soccer, but it was clear he was the best player on the field tonight. Jake is a freshman. I put him in multiple positions tonight and he played extremely well at every single one. That bodes well for his future at KHS.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

White said he is trying to schedule more games for the JV team this season, but their next scheduled game isn\u2019t until Jan. 9 at St. Helena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
