The Skyline Trojans (7-4-3 overall, 3-1-2 conference) are a solid team, but last Tuesday they looked shakier and shakier as the De Anza Dons (8-1-2, 5-0-1) dealt no less than eight successive blows to their morale.
The Dons controlled the game from start to finish, shutting out the Trojans 8-0 and handing them their biggest defeat of the season.
A well-balanced De Anza attack spelled doom for Skyline. Seven different players scored goals, led by Alicia Nunez with two.
Skyline’s offense spent hardly any time on the attack and was unable to make any serious attempts on goal. De Anza’s Samantha Martinez neutralized the Skyline attack in midfield.
On Tuesday at 4 p.m., De Anza will host West Valley (8-3-2, 6-0-0) in a matchup between the two Coast Conference division leaders.
