Aman & Beasley Score Goals In SeaWolves Win, Crossfire Beats Timbers U-23sEdmonds, Wash. - After both missed the North Sound SeaWolves' loss Sunday to the Kitsap Pumas, current Huskies Abdul Aman and Quinton Beasley came back and had strong performances in North Sound's 3-1 victory against the Vancouver Whitecaps U-23. Beasley (left; credit Dale Garvey) scored his first goal of the season off an assist from Aman in the first half at the 39-minute mark. After a long pass from Aman, Beasley beat the Vancouver keeper one-on-one for the game's first goal. It broke a 174-minute scoring drought for North Sound and gave them a lead for the first time since the season-opener on May 20. In the second half, Aman added a spectacular left-footed goal from 30 yards out over the head of the keeper and into the right side of the net. It was Aman's team-high third goal of the season. He later added an assist on the team's third goal. Aman missed the previous match against the defending champs Kitsap Pumas with a red-card suspension and Beasley missed the game for personal reasons. The SeaWolves (2-3) snapped a three-game losing streak while Vancouver (2-4-2) lost its second in a row. Next up for the North Sound SeaWolves will be a match-up against Fraser Valley Mariners at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, June 8 at Edmonds Stadium. Then they will head to Tacoma to play the Seattle Sounders U-23s at Franklin Pierce Stadium on Sunday, June 10 at 2 p.m. REDMOND, Wash. - The Washington Crossfire (4-1-1) handed the Portland Timbers U-23s (5-2-0) its second straight loss Wednesday, defeating them 2-1 at Redmond High School.
