North Bend’s girls soccer team beat visiting Sutherlin 3-2 on Monday night to finish the first half of the Far West League season on a winning note.

“I thought we played a little slow for most of the game,” said North Bend coach Dustin Hood. “We were fortunate to get a couple of goals to come out with the victory.”

Taylor Cribbins scored in the final minute of the first half to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 halftime lead.

“That was a real boost for us,” Hood said.

Nicole Medford added a goal on a beautiful shot from 18 yards out in the opening two minutes of the second half.

Chelsea Spencer scored a minute later for Sutherlin.

Caitlin McCullough scored North Bend’s final goal in the 71st minute on a header off a flip-throw from Sammie Clark.

Spencer gave Sutherlin a late goal for the final score.

“It’s a nice way to end the first half of the season,” Hood said.

North Bend is tied with Umpqua Valley Christian for third place at 3-2-1. Those teams open the second half of the league season against each other at Roseburg on Wednesday.

Bruins edge Red Devils

Brookings-Harbor scored in the third minute and held on for a 1-0 win over visiting Coquille on Monday.

The Bruins improved to 6-0-0, while Coquille fell to 0-6-0.

“We played them even after three minutes,” Coquille coach Mark Usselman said. “We played really well. I thought the girls had one of their better games.”

The game was played mostly in Coquille’s end of the field. The Red Devils had four shots on goal, while the Bruins had 10.

Usselman said Coquille’s defense played well and goalie Megan Meador had another strong game.

Glide beat visiting South Umpqua 4-1 on Monday.

Shelby Heidrick scored in the 17th minute and 42nd minute for the Wildcats. Robin Hansen added a goal in the 56th minute, with an assist by Caroline Brown. Brown scored a minute later.

The Lancers got their goal in the 58th minute, by Becca Rushford.

“We played really, really well,” said Glide coach Dana Croll. “It was our best game of the season. The kids just played together as a team really well.”
