Steamboat to face Conifer in soccer tourney's 1st round
Tuesday, May 8, 2001
Steamboat Springs — The Steamboat Sailors will play the Conifer Lobos at home in the first round of the state soccer tournament, said high school athletic director Steve Moos on Tuesday.
A date and time has not yet been announced for the Conifer game, though that is expected to be determined early today, Moos said.
The Sailors scored a 6-0 victory over the Fort Morgan Mustangs in a home regional playoff game Saturday.
Conifer comes off a dominating win as well. On Friday, Conifer handed Englewood a 7-0 loss.
The Lobos are 9-6-1 for the season and represent the 4A Jefferson County League.
The Sailors, who are in the 4A Western Slope League, are 13-1-1.
Steamboat is seeded sixth in the 16-team playoff, said Jon Hawes, Sailors assistant coach.
"We have respect enough around the state to get a No. 6 seed that rewards us with a home game," Hawes said.
"To me that's the most important thing (because) the kids have worked hard this year."
