Haskins helps Bellingham get past Meridian
Cory Haskins made the most of his varsity opportunity with a goal to help Bellingham beat Meridian 2-1 in a Northwest Conference game on Tuesday, April 19, at Northwest Fields.
Haskins, a senior, had been playing JV and was called up to play the second half of Tuesday’s game. Eight minutes later he scored on a cross from Keenan Knutilla to tie the game at one.
“It made the game and was by far the highlight,” coach Matt Zigulis said. “It’s something I will always remember as a coach.”
