The high school season is over, but the pitch warriors play on.
Zane Bundy and Abraham Leyva, who will be juniors at Coupeville High School in the fall, are playing select soccer with the Washington Rush premier squad this summer.
After winning a recent tournament, the Rush and its Wolf sharpshooters made a long run at the Nike Crossfire Challenge Cup last weekend.
The Rush upended the Kitsap Puma 2-0, RSA Elite 2-0 and Crossfire Oregon Black East 1-0 to advance to the quarterfinals, before falling 4-0 to the Washington Timbers.
The squad played that last game without their regular coach, who was suddenly called out of town.
Even though they didn’t get a title, playing at the Crossfire Cup gave Bundy and Leyva a chance to show their skills off in front of people they may hear from in the future, as the tourney draws a large contingent of college coaches who come to appraise talent.
