HS By The Numbers: Under the radar

March 29, 2019

Soccer is not a stat-driven sport, but that doesn't mean it is devoid of numbers. Each Friday for the rest of the high school season, TopDrawerSoccer high school editor Sheldon Shealer will provide a glance at some of the recent numerical milestones. If you have a performance or milestone worth noting, email us at MILESTONES.

1 -- Number of all-time playoff wins by the boys soccer team at Brewer (Texas) following a 1-0 victory over The Colony (Texas) this week. Brewer opened in the 1950s, moved to its current location in 2007 and had never won a boys soccer first-round playoff game until this year when Adrian Melendez scored the winning goal in the 77th minute, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

3 -- Number of times Sunshine Fontes has been named to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser all-state girls soccer first team. The U.S. Under-17 National Team player, UCLA commit and senior at Pearl City (Hawaii) is only the eighth player from her league to ever make the Star-Advertiser first team three years in a row. The most recent was current Hawaii forward Daelenn Tokunaga.

5 -- Number of assists served up by Savannah Moore of Kingwood (Texas) during the team's 8-0 win over Humble (Texas). Making the feat even more impressive, Moore assisted the first five goals of the match. She then scored one for herself, at the time making the score 6-0.

22 -- Match undefeated run for San Angelo Central's (Texas) girls soccer team entering postseason play this week. San Angelo Central has been a regionally ranked program in the past, and very easily could earn its way back into the Texas-North rankings in due time. The Lady Cats capped the 17-0-5 regular season with a 1-0 win over Euless Trinity (Texas) on a goal by Addison Bonaventure.
