The emotional moment shared by the long-time best friends offered an ironic end to a Foothill League girls' soccer game that showcased little goodwill by either team. In a game that was as physical and intense as advertised, Canyon and Saugus played to a 1-1 tie Wednesday, leaving even more to be settled in the teams' second meeting, Feb. 1 at Saugus. ``This was a huge game for us. We've been looking toward this game since we began training in August,'' said Centurions coach Lisa Rollo, who coached Canyon to its third consecutive league title last season before leaving the Cowboys' program to accept a full-time teaching position at Saugus. ``There's been a lot of talk and a lot of hype hype 1 Slang n. 1. Excessive publicity and the ensuing commotion: the hype surrounding the murder trial. 2. about the game.'' On the back of the car of one of Saugus' players in the adjacent parking lot, the words ``This is war'' were painted on the back window.

The Centurions (12-1-3, 2-0-2), who remained unbeaten in their past 14 games, finally broke through in the 55th minute as Catie Christie headed a direct kick from Betsy Kyle <noinclude></noinclude> ''This article or section is being rewritten at One derivation of the surname is from the Scottish Highland word caol, 'channel', or 'strait'.

Things turned for the worse for Saugus in the 67th minute, as Riggin - who attended Canyon last season, but transferred schools during the offseason when her family moved - was knocked out of the game. Canyon's Nini Loucks delivered a left-footed cross into the box, which Shannon Omahen attempted to one-time into the net, but she collided with Riggin, Saugus' starting goalkeeper, who screamed out to the head official that she had broken her nose. The game was stopped for close to 10 minutes while Rollo and several Saugus players attended to Riggin, who said she was going to a medical center in Northridge to have her condition evaluated. ``When Laurel got knocked out, it definitely changed the momentum of the game,'' said Rollo, who replaced Riggin with Kim Weiner. ``If it's hard for me (to deal with), it's got to be hard for them. My players are dropping left and right and there's only so much you can do.'' Omahen, who had a shot hit the inside of the right post and roll across the goal line and wide in the 37th minute, said: ``I didn't even know she was there. I just tried to flick it into the net and we collided.'' Canyon (10-2-1, 2-0-1), which missed out on a handful of opportunities to tie it after Saugus scored, finally delivered the equalizer in the 76th minute when Alexia alexia /alex·ia/ (ah-lek´se-ah) a form of receptive aphasia in which ability to understand written language is lost as a result of a cerebral lesion. Zatarian took a one-touch pass from Loucks off a Omahen cross and scored in the lower-right corner for her seventh goal in the past four games. ``We just wanted to go at it as hard as we could,'' Omahen said. ``Alexia's awesome. She has the hardest, most accurate shot.'' Canyon senior sweeper Bree Caceres, who helped Canyon remain unbeaten in its past 14 league games, said: ``The second half we really picked it up because we knew we couldn't be on our heels anymore. We knew if we kept pushing it at them, eventually they would break and toward the end, that's what they did.''
