Soccer axed at Olympic

Olympic College cut its men’s and women’s soccer programs in early January, the North Kitsap Herald reported last week.

Olympic College Athletic Director Barry Janusch announced on Jan. 5 that the men’s and women’s programs would be cut from the budget and the cut was made by the board of trustees.

Olympic College’s soccer squads play in the same division as Peninsula College. The Ranger men finished 2-14-2 for the season while Olympic’s women were 11-10-1.

Sequim High graduate Hector Baylon played for the Rangers in the fall of 2014, while Olympic’s women’s team featured Shayla Northern of Port Angeles.
