Closer to home, the Soldotna boys beat Nikiski 3-1 on Friday. The Stars got goals from Tommy Flores in the eighth minute and Bos Asimakopoulos at the end of the first half for a 2-0 lead.

The Bulldogs brought the lead back down to one with a direct kick strike in the second half, but Asimakopoulos added the insurance goal late in the game to seal the win.

The Homer girls fell to Juneau 4-0 on Friday under snowy skies.

Saturday, the Thunder Mountain girls claimed a 1-0 win over Homer, after playing to a scoreless draw with the Mariners on Thursday.

Kenai Central and Soldotna will play host to a soccer jamboree Friday and Saturday, with all Peninsula girls squads facing off at Kenai and boys at SoHi. Games will consist of 20-minute scrimmages that will not count as official games.
