COLUMBUS JUNCTION — Washington won a nonconference boys soccer game Tuesday, 3-2, over Columbus Thursday.
Columbus got a head start on the Demons, scoring the first two goals, in the seventh and 35th minutes.
The Demons cut the lead in half 2 minutes before halftime. Bill De La Rosa was fouled in the box and Zac Stout rocketed the penalty kick in.
Washington’s momentum flowed into the second half. Brayan Arreola scored in the 62nd minute with a shot from the top of the 18 to tie it at 2-2. Ten minutes later, Stout received a through ball on a quick pass from Arreola and put it in the back of the net. His second tally of the game was his 28th goal of the season, tied for seventh best total in the state, second in Class 2A.
In the match, each team had one player receive a yellow card.
Cole Anderson started the game in goal and had three saves for the Demons. DaShaun Westphal-Edwards had five saves in the second half.
