Sam Barlow Bruins Girls Soccer 2-0 South Salem

Sam Barlow's girls soccer team kept its clean sheet streak alive Tuesday, blanking South Salem 2-0 in a non-league home match in Gresham, Oregon, to push the Bruins to 2-0 on the young season. Playing in front of their home crowd, the Mt. Hood Conference (6A) program controlled the match from start to finish, finding the net twice while holding the Saxons scoreless through 80 minutes. The shutout win signals a strong defensive foundation taking shape for Sam Barlow, a promising sign for a team looking to establish itself as a contender heading into conference play. South Salem, a program out of the Mid-Willamette Conference, offered a quality early-season measuring stick, making the result all the more encouraging for the Bruins. Sam Barlow now turns its attention to upcoming Mt. Hood Conference competition, where a 2-0 start and back-to-back shutouts give head coach and players plenty of momentum to build on.
