Marist Catholic Spartans Boys Soccer 5-2 Junction City / Harrisburg

Marist Catholic picked up a convincing road victory Thursday, rolling past Junction City/Harrisburg 5-2 in a Sky-Em League (4A) boys soccer opener that puts the Eugene, Oregon program in the win column in conference play. The Spartans controlled the match from start to finish, pouring in five goals to claim their first league result of the season against a physical Tiger/Eagle squad on the road. The five-goal output signals an offense that is finding its rhythm at exactly the right time. Marist Catholic improves to 2-1 overall and 1-0 in league play with the result, a meaningful bounce-back after dropping a game earlier in the young season. Opening conference action with a road win carries real value in the Sky-Em League standings, where every league point matters when the playoff picture comes into focus later in October. The Spartans will look to carry that momentum into their next matchup and build on what was an encouraging team performance away from home.
