The Churchill County High School girls soccer team dominated Wooster and Debbie Smith Academy last week in a pair of mercy-rule games, and now gets the change to test themselves against their 3A East league foes.

The Greenwave is scheduled to host Lowry at 4:45 p.m. Friday in the first league game for both teams. Fallon is 4-2-1, and oddly enough, every game has been a shutout. Fernley has blanked their opponent in all four wins, didn’t score in either of their losses and the tie was 0-0 against North Tahoe.

Last Wednesday, the Greenwave beat Wooster 11-0. They scored five goals in the first 11 minutes, three by Karlie Simper and one each by Zayrah Miranda and Kortnie Simper. Karlie Simper’s four goal and Kortnie Simper’s second made it 7-0 at the half.

Thursday the Greenwave beat Debbie Smith Academy 9-0. They led 8-0 at the half with five goals by Karlie Simper, two by Miranda and one each by Emma Lewis and Savannah Anderton.

“These were the last two preseason games (crossover games with the West) for us,” assistant coach Neill Tunstead said. They are a very important part of our ramp up, to build up towards our own season in the East.”

Lowry is 4-6-1, and also played Wooster and Debbie Smith Academy last week, beating Debbie Smith 8-1 and Wooster 10-0.

Tunstead said the team feels confident and well prepared for league play.

“We are incredibly pleased with how we’ve played and improved as the weeks have progressed so far,” he said. “The team looks great again this season strong in every position.”

Angel Barajas and Acen Williams each scored goals to help the Churchill County High School boys soccer team to its second win of the season, 3-1 over Dayton, on Sept. 10.

The Greenwave improved their record to 2-6-2 overall as they begin league play this week. Fallon plays Friday at 3:45 p.m. at West Wendover and at 11:45 a.m. Saturday at Elko for their first Northern 3A games of the season

Comment author: Jeff goings Comment text: September 11, article Civics 101 I would like to commend Rachael Dahl and the Fallon post for their article. Civics 101. This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus. God Bless you all during this tragedy.
