Monday night, Carson High boys’ soccer fell to 4-8-3 this season after a 3-1 loss to the Railroaders from Sparks.
In the opening minutes, Emiliano Bravo was able to get the Senators a quick lead, but Carson couldn’t hold it against one of the best teams in Northern Class 5A.
Sparks responded with a goal before the half and two more in the final 40 minutes to escape with the win.
The Senators remain in sixth place by a single point over Galena and Damonte Ranch.
Wednesday, the Senators host the Grizzlies in what will be a must-win game for Carson if they want to make the postseason.
Wednesday’s contest also will be head coach Frank Martinez’s final home game at the helm of Carson High soccer after he confirmed he would be stepping down at the season’s end.
Prior to kickoff Wednesday night, the Carson High will be honoring Martinez and his assistant coach, Jorge Ortiz, for their efforts with the program over his years of service. The ceremony for Martinez and company is expected to begin around 6:15 with kickoff to follow at 6:45. It’ll also be Senior Night for the Senators.
