A little improvisation at Glenelg

When the referee at Monday's Glenelg-Reservoir girls soccer game didn't have a quarter for the pre-game coin toss, he used a pencil as a replacement.

He threw it up and the direction it landed determined which team got to choose taking the ball.

Turns out the referee put the pencil to good use the rest of the game as he issued five yellow cards, mostly for language, with no serious issues developing.

The host and No. 6 Gladiators came away with a sturdy 3-0 win over upstart Reservoir, which came into the game ranked sixth.
