Alaska Sports Hall of Fame

Jacob Luhrs

For the second time in a week, an Alaska-to-Alaska connection resulted in a goal for the North Idaho College men’s soccer team.

Both scoring plays involved Jacob Luhrs of Fairbanks.

Last time he scored the goal, but this time he set up former high school teammate Alwayne Anglin of Fairbanks for his first goal of the season.

Anglin’s first goal of the season in the 64th minute provided North Idaho with a 1-0 win over Walla Walla in NWAC action.

Luhrs, of West Valley High fame, ranks third on the team with three points on a goal and assist.

Anglin, of West Valley High fame, is one of five players on the team to score a goal through the first nine games.

Anchorage’s Dorian Cornichuck, of Service High fame, has two assists. He set up Luhrs in a 1-1 draw with Blue Mountain last week.
