Oregon Class 5-A Boys Soccer Semi-Final
Hood River Valley 2, Wilsonville 0: The Eagles dominated the flow of play most of the night to advance to the state championship game for the second time in as many years. Alex Gutierrez opened the scoring on a penalty kick with a little over seven minutes left in the first half, while Mario Sandoval added the insurance tally on a long-range shot from the wing with about 13 minutes to play. Wilsonville had a chance to tie the game late in the first half, but Garrett Bonnell’s penalty kick was stopped by Eagle goalkeeper Marcos Cuevas. HRV has won 17 straight games, and will seek its first state title Saturday when they face Woodburn at 10:30 a.m. at Hillsboro Stadium. Woodburn defeated defending champ Summit 2-1 in overtime in last night’s other semi-final.
