During Advanced Placement testing week for West High, the boys soccer team found themselves with more than just testing on their plate. On May 5 and 8, the boys had to prepare themselves for two intense matchups. They first played against third-ranked Southeast Polk High School on the fifth, and then against Linn-Mar High School three days later.
Despite it being a stressful and busy week for the student athletes, West High performed well at both games, losing 2-0 to Southeast Polk but winning 5-0 against Linn-Mar.
The West High boys soccer team huddles together to discuss how to approach the game after being scored on by Southeast Polk May 5.
Elias Ortiz '27 and Zeid Alwahdani '26 celebrate Ortiz scoring a goal to put West High up 1-0 against Linn-Mar High May 8.
The West Boys soccer team now holds a record of 6-5-1. They hope to further widen their winning record with matches May 12 against Dubuque Senior High at Dubuque, and against Kennedy High School May 15 at home.
