Benson Polytechnic Techmen Boys Soccer 1-0 Aloha

A single goal was all Benson Polytechnic needed Thursday night, as the Portland, Oregon-based PIL (6A) program's boys soccer team picked up a hard-fought 1-0 victory on the road at Aloha. The slim margin tells the story of a tight non-league contest, but for the Techies, the result was anything but small. Benson entered the match sitting at 1-5 on the season, searching for momentum and consistency after a rough stretch to open the fall. The shutout victory gives the program a much-needed confidence boost, moving the Techies to 2-5 overall. Keeping a clean sheet on the road against Aloha speaks to the defensive discipline Benson showed throughout the evening. With PIL (6A) league play continuing to shape up across the Portland Metro, the Techies will look to carry this road result into their next challenge. Every point and every win matters as the postseason picture begins to come into focus for programs across the region.
