High School Soccer - Palmetto Ridge host Golden Gate



Thursday night featured a nearly full moon and chillier temperatures than we have experienced in recent days. But inside the lines the action was hot at Palmetto Ridge High School in Naples, Florida. The Bears were host to both JV and Varsity squads from Golden Gate High, and the intensity was high, but without the kinds of spectator antics we saw earlier in the week at Barron Collier.

I arrived in the second half of the JV match, but what became obvious was how well matched the teams were, especially on defense, as they finished with a 0 - 0 tie.

In the Varsity game, the battle was just as hard - with the Bears holding the highly successful Titans to one goal in the first half, and only giving way in the final 10 minutes of action. Golden Gate notched their 12th win 4 -0.
