Boys Varsity Soccer (2-4-1 overall, 2-2-0 league)
de Toledo 3 - Milken 1
de Toledo flipped the script from their last game, similarly taking an early lead in the game, but this time being able to carry that momentum through its duration. The team grinded it out for all 80 minutes of the game and played composed beautiful soccer. Julian Gancman, who scored in his previous game, put up a hat trick. Gancman was supported by a midfield that fed balls up front to him and by a defense that turned possessions over to the Jaguars for quick counters. Dylan Benson, the team’s goalkeeper, put together his best showing of the season with at least a dozen saves. The performance between the pipes solidified de Toledo’s victory in a full-team effort.

de Toledo 71 - Glendale Adventist 23
de Toledo’s suffocating defense frazzled Glendale Adventist, which led the Jaguars to a big win. The game was close in the middle of the first quarter at 11-12, but then de Toledo put on the press and the gap began to widen. The pressure led to a whopping 28 steals by the team -- five each by Aidan Nussbaum and Dorel Cohen. The team turned the tight defense into quick open looks on offense, shooting 50% from the field, including 38% from 3-point range. Liam Evenhaim continued his offensive hot streak, scoring 25 points from all spots on the court. Evenhaim has now scored 25+ points in five consecutive matches, which will certainly add to his leading national scoring average in Jewish Hoops America. Jack Bromberg’s silky shot from distance proved to be a weapon, as 4-of-7 three-pointers tickled the twine for 12 points. Bromberg sat at the wing and the corner, waiting for cutters to dish it to his preferred spots, and he did not let them down.
