Continuing their recent winning streak, the Highlanders went into Highline on Tuesday and came out with another victory.
Junior forward Zach Quensal got things started early when he knocked a loose ball into the goal just 30 seconds into the game to give Hazen a quick lead.
Five minutes later, Quensal picked up an assist when forward Abel Haro took a pass and put it in the net for his first goal of the season.
Highline scored early in the second half to make it a close game, but Hazen was able to hold on for the win.
“Can any of these games be easy?” asked Matthews in an email. “Highline was a perfect example of why will work on improving our pace of play this season.”
With the wins, Hazen increases its record to 4-1-1 overall and 3-0-1 in the Seamount.
The Highlanders will host Renton Friday at Renton memorial Stadium.
