Wolves' PCSL Home Opener Saturday

from SeattleWolvesFC.com

This weekend while one Wolves squad is in Arizona playing for a USASA Region IV title, and a chance to compete for the National Championship, another will be at home versus the PCSL defending champion Victoria United. The Wolves' PCSL home opener kicks off at 7:00pm on Saturday in the Starfire Stadium.

Victoria won easily, 2-0, over the Vancouver Whitecaps Prospects on Saturday while missing 7 starters who were playing in the Provincial Cup. Those players will be back in action in Seattle this week, and with the Wolves missing key players due to the USASA Nationals in Arizona, this match should prove a very tough challenge for the Wolves in only their 2nd PCSL match.

The Wolves will be led by the potent offensive attack of ex-Seattle Sounder, Santa Maria Rivera, and Brazilian Thiago Silva, as well as local star, Moise Nistrian, who scored twice in the Wolves tie in Bellingham last weekend. Captain, Dave O'Neill and fullback, Kurt Ness, will lead a strong Wolves' defense, who will have their hands full with Victoria's well-organized offense, which returns many of their players from last season's championship squad.

Special ticket prices will be available for the home opener: Children under 12 are free, and all other tickets for the match are only $5.

See YOU at Starfire! Saturday May 17th, 7:00pm, Starfire Stadium , Pacific Coast Soccer League match v. Victoria United.
