ROUNDUP: Aggies’ win leaves Northwest title still up for grabs; random draw to be held Friday
October 25, 2012 - 9:57 pm
Chandler Yoder had a goal and an assist Thursday to allow Arbor View’s girls soccer team to move into a three-way tie for first place in the Northwest League with a 2-1 win over visiting Shadow Ridge.
Breanna Larkin also scored for the Aggies, who played shorthanded after receiving a red card 10 minutes into the match.
Arbor View, which beat both Palo Verde and the Mustangs in the final week of the season, finished in a tie with both teams at 8-2 in the Northwest. Each team went 2-2 in head-to-head competition, and head-to-head goal differential is also even.
Under Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association rules, the tie should be broken by coin toss. With three teams involved, the NIAA will instead determine the league’s No. 1 seed for the Sunset Region playoffs by random draw on Friday morning. The result will be posted on NevadaPreps.com after the draw.
The winning team will be the No. 1 seed and the remaining teams will be sent into a two-team tiebreaker that will be decided by the team that won the last meeting. Arbor View won the last meeting against both the Panthers and the Mustangs. Palo Verde won the last meeting against Shadow Ridge, which can not end up as the No. 2 seed.
Gabby Gonzales scored for Shadow Ridge.
