Boys Soccer Beat Artesia 3-1

Move on to Division 4 Quarterfinals

Earlier in the pre-season, Culver had lost to Artesia 3-0 with a rag-tag team put together by head coach Michael Castillo of varsity and junior varsity players. Their re-match came in the second round of the CIF SS Division 4.

In a very physical game, Artesia scored first in the 36th minute. Coming from behind is nothing new to the Centaurs. Five minutes later, in added time, Curtis Collazos headed in a corner kick to level the game at one each at halftime.

Early in the second half, Collazos also scored the go-ahead goal and later Gabriel Mejia put the game away with a shot that went under the goalie's arm and past another defender to score the 3 to 1 insurance goal.

Culver City (12-3-2) moves on to the quarterfinals and will play Knight (13-5-7) on Tuesday, February 18--Time and place to be determined.
