RS Tigers Defeat Evanston

On Wednesday at Evanston the Rock Springs Tigers battled the elements and the Red Devils. RS got on the board early when an Erick Mata shot was blocked but Pat Walker was able to finish the rebound for a Tiger goal in the 3rd minute of play. The Tigers kept on the attack and were rewarded with two more goals in the first half. The second goal came from Gilbert Gonzalez who dribbled through the last line of defense and beat the keeper. The last goal of the half came from Pat Walker again as he received a ball from Storie Ratcliff and Pat placed it between the keeper's legs for the score. With a comfortable 3 - 0 lead the Tigers added another goal in the 55th minute when Jesus Ramirez beat the Evanston keeper near post. Garrett Hay assisted the Ramirez goal. The game was called in the 60th minute due to snow on the field. This moved the varsity record to 3 - 2 - 0 and 2 - 0 - 0 in the 4A West Region. Man of the Match: Pat Walker (2 Goals)

Also playing in a shortened game due to the weather the JV Tigers were victorious over there Evanston counterparts by a score of 4 to 0. This improves the JV record to 3 - 1 - 1.

Up next for the Tigers: At Afton on Friday April 17th versus Star Valley - Jv 3:00pm and Varsity 5:00pm

Spring Break and Schedule Changes

The games versus Green River that were originally scheduled during our Spring Break have been re-scheduled. We will now have the JV game on March 30 at 5pm in Green River with the Varsity Game being March 31st at 5pm in Rock Springs. We still have our two home matches against the Casper schools (KW and NC) the first weekend of spring break (4/3, 4/4). These matches will be very important for our seeding at regionals. The team also is scheduled to practice on Monday and Tuesday of spring break, but will get the rest of the week off. Please make your family plans so that the can coincide with the team plans. The changes to the game schedule and the practice schedule have been changed on their own links, see the links to your right.

1st Practice is Monday

Monday March 8th will be the first practice for the 2010 edition of the RSHS Tiger Soccer Team. The practice will be from 4:00pm to 6:00pm and will be held at the football field behind White Mountain Elementary field. All players need to remember their paperwork (physical, activities release, emergency card and proof of insurance) and their equipment (soccer cleats, shin guards, outdoor clothes and water). In the case of inclement weather, could we please have the students listen to the announcements at school or contact Coach Atkinson at the high school on Monday after lunch (room 304a).

Rivalry Games Postponed

Due to the snow and the inability to prepare our fields we had to postpone both the Varsity and JV matches with Green River earlier this week. These games will be re-scheduled at the earliest chance that we can fit it into our schedules. We are still hopeful that we will be able to play our next two home games against Natrona County on Friday April 3rd - JV - 3:00pm and Varsity 5:00pm and against Kelly Walsh on Saturday April 4 th - JV - 10:00am and Varsity 12:00pm.
