FREMONT โ€“ After a nine-day layoff between games, the Fremont Ross boys soccer team needed some time to get back in the swing of things.

Eventually, the Little Giants found a rhythm, and with a pair of second half goals, pulled out a 3-2 non-conference win over Oak Harbor.

โ€œThey were out of sorts a bit, you could tell we hadnโ€™t played in a while,โ€ coach Alex Coressel said. โ€œThe miscues we had on defense were a lack of communication just from not being out there together for a bit.โ€

Ross hadnโ€™t played since defeating Tiffin Columbian 9-0 on Sept. 14.

Alec Slemmer opened the scoring for the Little Giants with an assist from Chris Navarro. While Ross fired 30 shots toward the Rocket goal Saturday, Coressel said Ross settled on most of those shots, rather than pushing ahead for a higher quality opportunity.

โ€œWe came out of the box, played relatively well, had about 18 shots in the first half but they were generally settling for 20-, 25-yard shots or longer,โ€ he said. โ€œWe just werenโ€™t working it in the box, the one goal we scored in the first half was shot from inside the box.โ€

Dylan Brady scored unassisted in the second half, his 12th tally of the season, surpassing his total from all of last season. Cesar Flores scored Rossโ€™ final goal of the afternoon off a corner kick by Navarro, who picked up his second assist of the day.

Mikey Contreras made five saves on eight Oak Harbor shots.

The Little Giants (7-1 overall) will travel to Clay Tuesday night for an important TRAC meeting.

โ€œThat will be a big TRAC matchup, kind of tell us where weโ€™re at,โ€ Coressel said. โ€œClay is playing very well and definitely been a thorn in our side the last couple of seasons. It could be nice to get them at their place.โ€
