Boys soccer: Sailors edged by Cerritos

CERRITOS - The Newport Harbor High boys soccer team lost to host

Cerritos, 1-0, Friday in nonleague action.

The Dons scored in the seventh minute and the goal held up, despite

numerous scoring opportunities by the Sailors (0-2-1), according to coach

Matt West.

“We put the pressure on them, but we just are having a hard time

finding the back of the net,” West said.

West was pleased with the all-around play of Juan Gonzalez, Tyler

Simmons and Kevin Campos, while goalie Ricky Rendon had five saves.

Newport will host three of the top teams in Orange County next week

with Estancia on Monday, Mater Dei on Wednesday and Dana Hills on Friday.

All three games are set to start at 3:15 p.m.
