Shoreline forfeits to PC

PORT ANGELES — Saturday’s Peninsula College women’s soccer match against Shoreline on Saturday has been declared a forfeit, as the Dolphins, who started with a small roster, suffered injuries and announced Monday that they will be unable to complete their season.

The Peninsula College men’s match between Peninsula and Shoreline is still on with a 2:15 p.m. Saturday kickoff at Wally Sigmar Field in Port Angeles.

Both the men and the women are idle on Wednesday.

New assistant AD

PORT ANGELES — Amanda Anderson accepted the position of Peninsula College’s assistant athletic director.

Anderson is moving from a part-time role in athletics and student life into a full-time athletics job.

“Our Pirate athletes, fans and community are certain to enjoy her spin on how we publicize and host games and her vision on how we grow as a department. Thanks for taking this on Amanda,” the school announced on Facebook.

The former assistant athletic director, Jeremiah Johnson, was an employee of the school for 10 years. He also won an NWAC basketball championship playing for the Pirates in 2011. He moved to Utah to take a private sector position.

“[Johnson] is moving on to a new and exciting chapter in his life and leaving behind a wake of great memories, unparalleled advancements in technology and graphic arts, and a work ethic and positive spirt that served as an inspiration to our students, staff and community,” Peninsula College stated.
