The Decorah boys soccer team continues to put tallies in the win column after defeating North Fayette Valley (5-4) on the road Saturday morning.
Nearly two weeks after a late snowstorm postponed the match, the Vikes and TigerHawks were on the pitch battling up and down the pitch for control of the ball. Following a scoreless first half, Jake Magner passed the ball to freshman Ian Giddings who scored the lone goal of the game.
In all, Decorah had 10 shots on the goal against North Fayette Valley with three coming from Aiden Burroughs, two each by Brady Benzing and Jeramiah Rediske. Jimmy Valdez and Lincoln Bishop had one apiece.
Caleb Meyer had five saves in the goal.
The Vikes were at Dubuque Wahlert Monday, then are off until Saturday, May 6, when they compete at the Waverly-Shell Rock tournament beginning at 9 a.m.
