TORRINGTON – Four of the eight Torrington Trailblazer goals in an 8-1 win over Newcastle at home on Tuesday came from four seniors who have combined for one goal this season.
“I thought that we played very well tonight, especially offensively,” coach Jeshua Arnusch said. “We outshot them 32-8 and had a few goals that were deemed offside. Overall, I thought we did a great job of moving the ball between our midfielders and I thought we did a solid job of playing the ball over the top of the Newcastle defense.”
In the first half, it was business as usual for the Blazers. Seventy-seven seconds into the game, Anthony Munoz got the scoring started, recording a goal off the post from the assist from A.J. Shields. In the 33rd minute, Nathan Stitt worked his way through three Dogie defenders and got a clean look at the goal, which he converted for the score.
Just before halftime, Munoz took a corner that ricocheted off the goalie and into the net, putting Torrington up 3-0 at intermission.
“I was especially impressed with Anthony Munoz,” Arnusch said. “His work ethic tonight and at practice this year has really helped throw him into the spotlight. I thought his two first half goals were awesome. He made some great runs an his touch was on the money.”
