In a game that started in a drizzle and ended in a downpour, the SK Girls bested the Calvary Christian Lady Cougars 2-0 at Calvary's field tonight. The Lady Pioneers have a winning streak of 6 games. The win solidifies the Lady Pioneers as the number one seed in the district tournament in October. SK put 2 goals on the board in the first half off a deflection from junior Shay Nienaber's corner kick and a high shot goal from freshman Jillian Russell.
The Lady Pioneers played a considerable amount of defense in the second half but were able to hold Calvary to post their third consecutive shutout- all against district opponents. The always dangerous Meghan Gudgeon from Calvary had some nice shots on goal but senior Annie Hamm was able to keep the ball out of the net along with another nice effort from the rest of the defense.
The JV team was able to start play but was unable to finish as the rains came down and the field became unplayable.
