The Tigers and Braves of Star Valley played in a 4A West conference match on Friday in Rock Springs. The Tigers got off to another fast start as the scored in the 4th minute when Storie Ratcliff hit the back of the net. The Tigers second goal was headed in by Taylor Chesnovar in the 12th minute off of a corner kick sent in by Storie Ratcliff. The Storie show continued as he collected a long drop kick by Tyler Wilkinson in the 26th minute to give the Tigers a 3 - 0 lead. Ratcliff completed his hat trick in the 31st minute when he beat the keeper again, this third goal was assisted by Pat Walker. The Braves were able to get on the scoreboard in the 34th minute when after making 2 great saves the ball just squeezed over the line on Tyler Wilkinson. The half time score was 4 - 1. The second half did not see a lot of action in front of either goal as the Tigers were content with the 3 goal lead and the Braves just were not able to mount much of an offensive attack. The final score stood at 4 - 1. The conference victory pulls the Tigers record to 3 - 5 - 1 and 2 - 3 in conference with sole possession of 4th place.
