An early stumble didn’t knock the Skyview boys soccer team off its game on Wednesday.
Carter Johnson scored three goals and the Storm advanced to the Class 4A state quarterfinals with a 4-1 win over Roosevelt at Memorial Stadium in Seattle.
Bryce Schomburg gave the Roughriders an early 1-0 lead, but the once the Storm sorted out things in the back they seized control of the contest.
Skyview (15-4) will face Lake Stevens, probably on Saturday at Kiggins Bowl. The time of that quarterfinal match is to be determined. Lake Stevens defeated Jefferson 2-1 in a penalty-kick shootout on Wednesday.
Against Roosevelt, Skyview took charge by scoring three goals in quick succession during the first half. Two of those were from Johnson, who completed his second three-goal outing of the season by scoring the only goal of the second half.
Sean Price scored the go-ahead goal for the Storm.
