Housing and Development Newsletter McLean said Santa Ynez made it tough for his team to break through for more goals. "Santa Ynez is a very well organized and strong team. They defend with a lot of energy and make it hard to create chances," he said. San Marcos' defense played a strong game, limiting the Pirates to few scoring opportunities. McLean praised the play of defenders JC Orgaz, Juan Escobar, Justin Hess and Mondragon, and goalkeepers Ulysses Velez and Sam Friedman. "They were excellent tonight," said the coach.
