The Cougars are scheduled to play Lower Lake in their first non-league game Wednesday at 4 p.m. as the third annual Tyler Duncan Memorial Tournament opens in Upper Lake. The boys and girls tournament runs through Saturday. Clear Lake, Kelseyville and Middletown are also entered. Upper Lake’s girls return to the pitch for the first time since the 2019 season when they finished 11-8-1 overall. The entire 2020 season was wiped out by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Cougars return many of their top players from the 2019 squad, including Young and Karlee Zimmerschied. (Photos by Brian Sumpter)
