Port Neches-Groves boys 7, Silsbee 1 PORT NECHES -- Trying to stay in a commanding position for a playoff spot, Port Neches-Groves rallied from an early scare to topple Silsbee, 7-1, on Tuesday night at The Reservation. PN-G (8-3-3 and 7-2-1) never had the lead in this game during the first 30 minutes of the opening half, but coach Don Sandell's Indians retrieved a bit of their energy level after taking a 2-1 advantage into halftime. Kris Hayes delivered one goal and two assists and Nathan Romero poked home two goals before an improved Silsbee squad dropped to 5-5 and 5-5. "I'm not disrespecting (Silsbee coach) Dale's (Cormier) team but we didn't have the same energy level we had against Nederland," the Indians coach Sandell said. "We quit doing some of the things we were doing that had made us successful. We weren't playing up to our expectations and I think our players realized that." Carlos Ortiz and Romero scored first-half goals. Romero fired home the go-ahead goal from about the six-yard box, giving PN-G its first lead with 10 minutes left in the half. Evan Johnson, Sean LeBlanc, Hayes, Bryce Tallant and Romero responded for a more-focused Indians' second-half scoring effort. The Indians dominated shots on goal, 27-5. Junior goalkeeper Steven Baque had four saves for the Tribe.

Well said Jsmity

PORT NECHES -- Stephen Zimmerman finally decided to take matters onto his own shoes and Don Sandell seemed glad that he did late Tuesday night. The Port Neches-Groves junior stopper with primary responsibility of playing great defense, Zimmerman found his Indians deadlocked in a scoreless game midway into the second half when he delivered a game-winning through ball into the net. Zimmerman's goal lifted the Indians over Vidor, 1-0, at The Reservation on a very windy night when PN-G (7-3-2 and 6-2) had to feel snakebit and windblown. First-year head coach Don Sandell's Tribe kept finding no luck at all as at least four Indians shots caromed off Vidor's goalpost. Zimmerman began a special length-of-the-field run with about 18 minutes left in the game. He combined with teammate Sean LeBlanc on a give-and-go opportunity. LeBlanc positioned a well-placed pass back to Zimmerman. And then, well let's allow Sandell to describe Zimmerman's game-winning shot. "Stephen calmly placed a through ball into the goal," the PN-G coach said. "It was picture-perfect." Sandell had other reasons to be happy. For one thing, the Indians' defense limited Vidor (6-5-1 and 4-4) to six shots during the entire game. "Holding a team as good as Vidor to only six shots was important and Baque had a great game," Sandell said. "We received some great performances, too, from our sweeper Eric Parks and our center midfielder Kris Hayes." Baque delivered his season's fifth shutout, producing three huge first-half saves while the Pirates had the benefit of a 15-to-20 mile-an-hour north wind.

I am impressed with your post about the injury and respect you for your apology. I talked to coach Sandell and he said it was just one of those things that happen there was nothing dirty about the play. A lot of people do not think that soccer is a contact sport but it is. Good luck Tuesday I'll be watching!

PNG JV all the way. what time do ya'll start so I can come early and watch some JV. I got there too late against LCM because of the injury to the LCM player.

I agree and I think PNG JV is awesome!
