The Lady Wolves soccer team couldn’t keep the momentum going into their second week of play.

Sequim opened with a win over Chimacum on Sept. 10, but fell to the Klahowya Eagles 2-0 in Silverdale on Sept. 15.

Sequim head coach Brittany Murdach said she was pleased with the way the girls played and that they even stepped up their level of play from the Chimacum game.

However, Sequim had multiple opportunities to win on Sept. 17, at home against the Coupeville Wolves with three near-miss goals in the first half.

Senior Gretchen Happe countered an early goal in the second half by Coupeville. She scored unassisted in the 73rd minute to lead to a tie bringing Sequim to 1-1-1 overall.

Murdach said the girls struggled to stay focused during the game.

“We are looking for improvement going into our first league games next week,” she said.

The Lady Wolves traveled to Kingston on Sept. 22, and host Port Angeles on Thursday, Sept. 24.
