The No. 14 Decorah boys soccer team moved to a 6-1 record with back-to-back wins to close out last week.
Thursday, the Vikes were at Waverly-Shell Rock and picked up a 2-0 win over the Go-Hawks (3-4). Both goals were scored by Jake Magner as he took three shots on the goal. In all, the Vikes had all 12 of the shots on goal in the match. Aside from Magner’s three, Jimmy Valdez had two, Jeramiah Rediske had two and Ian Giddings had two. With one each were Brady Benzing, Peter Essa and Franklin Lesmeister. Junior Caleb Meyer stood in goal for Decorah.
Friday, Decorah continued to step it up, knocking off Clayton Ridge (3-4) by a 7-1 tally. At halftime, the Vikes led 2-1 and put up five goals in the second half, outshooting the Eagles 27-2 overall. Performing a hat trick for Decorah was junior Lincoln Bishop. Others putting the ball in the back of the net for the Vikes were Parker Heiselman, Magner, Will Larson and Giddings. Once again, Meyer was goal for the Vikes with one save.
The Vikes were at Denver Monday and host Hudson tonight (Tuesday, April 29) at 5 p.m. A rescheduled match at North Fayette Valley will take place Saturday, April 29, at 9 a.m.
