The Bulldogs (3-1) outshot the Haus 10-0, but couldn’t find break the scoring ice until the 78th minute. Stanfield launched what was intended to be a crossing pass, but it curved into the net.
Montesano’s Brooke Streeter had a prime scoring chance midway through the second half accidentally blocked by a teammate inside the penalty area.
“We’re making attacks and defending well,” Monte coach Fidel Sanchez said. “We’re just not getting to the area where we need to be where they are high-percentage shots.”
Outside defender Hallie Stubb was cited by Sanchez for a strong performance.
Montesano’s junior varsity won at Rochester, 4-0. Ellie Jones scored twice and Cassidy Golding and Ava Poler had one goal apiece for the Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs visit Class 2A Centralia on Tuesday.

Sutherby and Johnston were cited not only for their play but their leadership in keeping the Eagles calm during a physically played match.
