Palo Alto scored early and visiting Gunn scored late in a 1-1 tie Friday night as the teams opened Santa Clara Valley Athletic League De Anza Division girls soccer play.

Paly opened the scoring with a shot through traffic against the flow of play midway through the first half.
Gunn came close to tying several times and finally equalized in the second half when sophomore Parker Vale delivered a long shot that careened off the inside of the far post.

Abby Westcott connected on a free kick in the 65th minute for the game winner.
Goalie Lauren Sharkey and defender Kate Stone were instrumental in keeping Los Altos out of the net.
