In the Class 4A- Region 3 quarterfinal, it was the Landry brothers of Sunlake who stole the show. Jordan and Jared Landry combined for 5 goals as the Seahawks prevailed 6-1 at Cobra stadium Thursday night.
The Seahawks got it going early, with Jordan Landry taking a pass from his brother Jared in the third minute and burying the ball past the Cobra keeper for a 1-0 lead. Just 8 minutes later it was the Landrys who struck again. This time Jared was set up nicely by Connor Gilboy and gave the Seahawks a 2-0 lead.
Before halftime, Jordan Landry had his second goal of the game. Gilboy and Austin Gobel set up the goal, and Sunlake had an insurmountable 3-0 lead going into halftime.
In the second half, it was more of the same. The Landrys each had a goal to give Jordan a hat trick and the Seahawks a 5-0 lead just 15 minutes into the second half. Sunlake would make it 6-0 when Alex Piruzza blasted a goal from 35 feet.
Hudson's Jonothan Mendez scored late to avoid the shutout for the Cobras. Sunlake will host Pasco in the regional semifinal Tuesday night. Seahawk head coach Sam Kolduk thinks his team is up for the challenge.
"We lost to them earlier this season(2-0), but it was a real good game." said Kolduk. "I think we're pretty evenly matched teams."
