Golden continued to personify Class 4A Jeffco League soccer dominance as the Demons pummeled Alameda 8-0 Friday at North Area Athletic Complex.
Seven different Demons tallied against the Pirates in the conference contest. Senior Matt Garrett led Golden (6-1, 3-0 in league) with two goals. The Demons and D’Evelyn are the only remaining undefeated teams in 4A Jeffco League play.
“We played really well tonight and we caught Alameda at a good time,” Golden coach Chad Reid said. “The first half we struggled a little bit scoring because we were dribbling too much. Once we started playing the ball to the corner and crossing in, which is our game, we started scoring a lot of goals.”
The game’s outcome was seldom in doubt as Golden controlled the tempo of the contest and held the Pirates without a shot on goal.
The Demons took a 2-0 halftime advantage and poured on the offense even after Reid pulled his starters in the 55th minute with the Demons holding a 5-0 edge.
Golden’s backups went on to score three goals. The Demons have outscored its opponents 23-3 since they lost their only game of the season to Class 5A’s Wheat Ridge.
Complete coverage of the Golden-Alameda game will be published in the Sept. 29 issues to the Golden Transcript and Lakewood Sentinel.
