After a run of strong showings, the Oak Harbor High School soccer team went in reverse in an 8-0 loss at Meadowdale Thursday, Oct. 13.

The fresh defending district champion Mavericks (10-3) took advantage of a tired Wildcat squad playing its fourth game in six day.

Coach Jeff Laiblin said, “We were on dead legs. We looked tired and made horrible mistakes.”

There were a few bright spots, though, Laiblin said, noting the play of Nalani Gabbert and Kyndra Sherman.
