Pendleton 2
West Oak 3

Pendleton led 2-1 in the first half before West-Oak scored the second of it's first half hustle goals to tie it up before halftime. West-Oaks third goal came off a rip from the corner of the 18. Pendleton pressured the goal in the second half but could not punch one home to tie.

To answer Soccer08's question from earlier, yes, Abbeville is improved but Pendleton lost 8 starters from last year's squad and only have 4 returning players overall. We start 2 freshmen, 5 sophomores, 2 juniors, and 2 seniors and have a lot of learning to do. I expect us to get better as the season progresses but it will take time as players learn the speed of the game and what it takes to be successful.
