The Paso Robles junior varsity Bearcats hosted the St. Joseph Knights in their first league game that resulted in a 0-0 tie on Friday. The Bearcats, despite 26 shots on goal, could not put the ball in the back of the net.
“A lot of credit goes to the defensive line of St. Joseph,” said Bearcats Coach Dillon Simoulis. “They made it very hard for the Bearcats to get good, clean looks at the goal.”
The Bearcats (0-1 PAC 8, 7-1 overall) allowed just two shots on their goal and missed a game-winning penalty kick just wide of the goal in the last few minutes of the game.
