The mens soccer teams of North Stanly and West Stanly met in a non-conference matchup on Monday in Red Cross on the Colts home field.

West was playing in its second match of the season after losing 4-0 to Union Academy a week before, while North had losses last week to Mount Pleasant 5-0 and Piedmont 10-1.

Scoring three times in the first 10 minutes, West ended the match early with the mercy rule midway through the second half, winning 9-0 over the Comets.

Logan Brown led the offense for the Colts (1-1) with three goals while Aldo Cruz added a goal and two assists. Manuel Osorio and Noel Medina each added a goal and an assist, while Elvin Lonas and Leonardo Martinez each scored goals. Damian Talley, Caleb Feere and Arturo Zelaya each added an assist for West as well.

West Stanly continues non-conference road play today at Monroe while North Stanly was scheduled to open conference play Wednesday at South Davidson.
