Blanchet Catholic School Cavaliers Boys Soccer 1-1 Westside Christian

A road trip to Westside Christian ended in a 1-1 deadlock Tuesday as Blanchet Catholic's boys soccer team opened its 2026 fall season. The Cavaliers, based in Salem, Oregon, and competing out of the PacWest Conference (3A), earned the tie in a non-league opener against the Eagles. Neither side could pull away, and the match finished level after both teams found the back of the net once. For Blanchet Catholic, the result offers a measured starting point heading into what the Cavaliers hope is a strong PacWest campaign. Playing on the road in a season opener is rarely an easy task, and walking away with a point rather than a loss gives the squad something to build on. The Cavaliers now sit at 0-0-1 on the young season. Blanchet Catholic returns to action later this week as the team looks to pick up its first win and sharpen its form before conference play intensifies.
