SOCCER
The girls soccer team extended its win streak to six after beating Battle Mountain, 16-0, on the road.
Fallon (10-0 3A East) hosts Elko and Spring Creek this weekend, which could give Fallon breathing room atop the standings. Elko sits in second with its only loss coming to Fallon last month in Elko.
In last week’s win over Battle Mountain, Jazelynn Kratz led Fallon with four goals and Kortnie Simper and Karlie Simper each had three. Yasmien Leceste and Kaitlin Goings each scored twice, and Payton Oceguera and Ambreea Snodgrass each had one goal.
Snodgrass also earned the shutout, playing 40 minutes at goalkeeper while Karlie Simper and Emerson Allyn also shared time.
The Greenwave boys improved to 6-3 in the 3A East with a 10-0 win over Battle Mountain on Tuesday in Lander County.
Fallon sits in third behind Elko (6-0-1) and Spring Creek (7-2). The Greenwave travel to Elko County this weekend to face both the Indians and Spartans.
