SOCCER
Johnson, Penley spark MM
After a frustrating first half, Mark Morris exploded for four goals to put away Washougal 5-0 at Northlake Field on Thursday in a Greater St. Helens 2A League soccer match.
The Monarchs (3-3-2, 2-2 in league) uncorked an 18-shot barrage in the first half but scored on just one, a Corey Johnson finish set up by Luis Bueno.
After halftime, Johnson connected again, Jeremy Penley had two goals and an assist, Sam Dodson had a goal, and Ian Kretzler, T.J. Suek and Michael Bollinger each had an assist.
“We started the game a little selfish and we just couldn’t find the net,” MM coach Harold West said. “Once we started crossing the ball when crosses became available instead of forcing stuff on the dribble, it opened up for us.”
West said it was “a breakout game” for Dodson at left forward, and praised the defense of Kody Rice and Edgar Vazquez.
Willie Brenc recorded the shutout in goal for the Monarchs, who visit Yelm Saturday.

The setback dropped RAL (3-1) out of a tie with Ridgefield (4-0) atop the GSHL standings.
“We played a really tough match, but we’re depleted with injuries so we had to use six JV players,” RAL coach John Bates said. “The guys played with a lot of heart, and hopefully we’ll bounce back from it.”
