Try as they might, the Wiscasset High School boys varsity soccer team couldn't break through against a tough Carrabec High School team Tuesday, Sept. 9.

The Wolverines (0-2) fell, 5-0, to their Mountain Valley Conference foes, the Cobras.

In a testy match-up of two rivals, the Cobras struck often against a young Wiscasset team.

Carrabec's Dillon Willette was a thorn in the side of Wolverines all game; the forward had a pair of goals and assist to lead the Cobras.

Willette's assist set up Carrabec's first goal, which came with 10 minutes remaining in the first half. Willette was able to thread the needle and get Seth Byrnes the ball to break a scoreless tie.

The Cobras scored again with three minutes remaining when Dustin Crawford drilled home a goal with an assist from Jacob Atwood.

The Wolverines would bounce back and press an attack on Carrabec before the first half ended.

In the second half the Willette show resumed. The forward scored Carrabec's third and fourth goals before senior Isaac Valliancourt, playing soccer for the first time, kicked home a goal with an assist from Nick Sansone. After Valliancourt scored the other Carrabec players mobbed the senior.

The Wolverines are coming off a 3-1 loss against Mt. Abram, Sept. 6. Brycson Grover scored the lone goal in that game for Wiscasset.
