On Monday in Phoenix Arizona the Pumas of Paradise Valley Community College hosted the WWCC Mustangs. This was another first meeting on the pitch between these two teams. In about 95 degree weather the Mustangs got on the scoreboard first and often in the initial 45 minutes. The first goal was Steven Shelley assisted by Angel Muniz in the 13th minute. Seven minutes later Devin King doubled the Mustang lead on his goal with an assist from Spencer Mohlman. PVCC stormed back and cut the WWCC lead to 2 - 1 with a through ball goal in the 28th minute. WWCC finished the 1st half strong with an additional 2 goals. Devin King scored his second goal in the 32nd minute off of another assist from Spencer Mohlman. Jarom Stuart finished off the 1st half scoring in the 38th minute when Devin King set him up with a nice pass that Jarom was able to place past the PVCC keeper. The half time lead was WWCC 4 - PVCC 1.The second half started as well for WWCC as the first half ended. Andrew Newbold received a diagonal through ball from Taylor Egbert in the 47th minute and Newbold belted it past the keeper to extend the lead to a staggering 5 - 1. PVCC had to play more offensively to try to get back in the match and they did. The Pumas scored in the 50th minute, the 71st minute and again in the 73rd minute. The score was 5 - 4 with 17 minutes left to go in the match. The WWCC defense stiffened, the midfield worked hard and the forwards kept possession to kill the clock and the WWCC Mustangs escaped with a 5 - 4 victory, their first win in AZ and their first win against a Region 1 (AZ team). Luis Trevisan was the starter in goal and played the entire 90 minutes to get his first win of the season. The road victory brings the Mustangs up to a 3 -2 - 0 record and still with a 2 - 1 - 0 Region IX record.
