PREP ROUNDUP: Coeur d'Alene boys clinch top seed to regional title series
• BOYS SOCCER
COEUR d’ALENE — Once that first goal went in, all those emotions of senior night spilled into effort in closing out the season with a win for Coeur d’Alene on Thursday.
Senior Kason Pintler recorded a hat trick for the Vikings, who fell behind 1-0 early before beating the Moscow Bears 5-1 in an Inland Empire League match on Thursday at Viking Field, locking up home-field advantage for the 6A District 1 best-of-3 championship series with Lake City.
“That first goal was a shock to the system,” said first-year Coeur d’Alene coach Robbie Harmelink said. “It was senior night, and we had a lot of things that distracted us. But I was proud of the response that we had after that first goal. We showed some resilience and came out and dominated after that first five minutes.”
Coeur d’Alene (9-2, 6-1 IEL) will host Lake City in the first game of their best-of-3 series on Oct. 12, with Game 2 at Lake City on Oct. 15 and back at Coeur d’Alene, if necessary, on Oct. 17.
