Wolcott boys soccer riding four-match winning streak

Tyson Brenes (5), Parker Zynda (3) and Damien Georges (14) are just a few of the standouts during Wolcott boys soccer’s four-match win streak.

The Wolcott boys soccer team has won four straight matches since dropping a 1-0 decision at Torrington in the season opener.

The Eagles have defeated Crosby, WCA, Bristol Central and Oxford, outscoring their opponents, 12-3, over that stretch.

Six of those 12 goals have come from sophomore Tyson Brenes, and three of those happened in a 5-1 win over Bristol Central this past Wednesday. Tyson has scored all six of his goals in the last three matches, including two in a 3-1 victory over WCA on Sept. 9. The hat trick against Central followed, then he had one and one assist in a 2-0 win over Oxford this past Friday.

Alex Dias has scored two goals during the four-match win streak. Senior Parker Zynda and junior JJ Brenes have tallied a goal and two assists apiece during the streak. Sophomores Connor Silva and Marcos Franco Sarmiento each have a goal, and Nick DeMelo and Mandjou Keita have provided an assist apiece.

Senior Sam Berninger has made 19 saves in the last three matches, including a high of nine in the victory over WCA on Sept. 9.

Wolcott is on the road twice this week, first at Woodland on Tuesday and St. Paul on Friday. The kickoff against the Hawks, which will be on their new turf field, is scheduled for 4 p.m. The kickoff against the Falcons is slated for 6 p.m. at McPhee Field.
