Oregon Episcopal Aardvarks Boys Soccer 1-0 Dayton

Oregon Episcopal boys soccer opened its 2026 season on the right foot, edging Dayton 1-0 in a non-league home contest on September 1 in Portland, Oregon. The Aardvarks, members of the Lewis & Clark League (3A), made a strong first impression by keeping a clean sheet and finding the back of the net just enough to secure the victory. A tight, low-scoring match often signals strong defensive play on both sides, and this one was no exception. Oregon Episcopal controlled the result when it mattered most, converting their opportunity and protecting the lead through the final whistle. The win moves the Aardvarks to 1-0 on the young season, a confident start heading into what promises to be a competitive fall campaign. With league play on the horizon, Tuesday's result gives the squad early momentum and a foundation to build on as they continue to sharpen their form in the weeks ahead.
