Woodside's Lauren Holland avoids a pair of Burlingame defenders during the Wildcats' 2-0 win, keeping them undefeated in PAL Bay Division play this season. |
At 8-0-1 in the Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division standings following a 2-0 shutout of Burlingame, Woodside girls' soccer coach Jose Navarrete said other teams would "release doves” and sing the praises of how good it is.
Navarrete is far from that kind of coach. While his team took another step toward a Bay Division championship, he is concerned with the Wildcats' play.
"We're not the same team we were before the (Christmas) break. We're not going to go far if we don't play better. Maybe the best thing for us is to get a big, fat loss,” Navarrete said. "We have to work harder off the ball. There is no room in this sport for jogging.”
Tough critic. Despite their coach's reservations, the Wildcats just continue to be the best team in the PAL. The Burlingame defense had a lot to do with keeping Woodside in relative check |
