Last night, the girls' soccer team kicked off their season by travelling to Platte County HS to take on Staley in the opening round of the Platte County Tournament. The game started quickly for the girls as Josie Sparks took the ball away from the Staley defense and placed one past the goalie into the back corner in the 3rd minute of the game to put us up 1-0. Less than a minute later, after a foul around midfield by Staley, Addi Fischer placed a beautiful ball in the box that found Addi Smith's head. Her header found the back of the net, just nestling in over the outstretched hands of the goalie. It was an amazing goal!! Her goal made it 2-0 just 4 minutes into the game. Great assist by Fischer. 6 minutes into the game, disaster struck as our captain and center back, Charlie Dollar, went down with an injury. With our leader sidelined, we struggled to recover, and Staley scored a couple of goals to make it 2-2. The girls settled down, and Josie Sparks found Zoey Fredlund, who found the top corner from about 25 yards out, putting us up 3-2. Staley scored with abou 10 minutes left before halftime on a PK to tie it up at 3-3. After halftime, the girls kept Staley out of the net until about halfway through the second half, when Staley slipped behind our defense and finished a volley to make it 4-3. Addi Fischer later scored from distance, but a foul was called right as she shot, disallowing the goal. The girls fought hard to try to equalize, but Staley scored a 5th goal towards the end of the game to make it 5-3. On a warm day, the girls fought hard against a good Staley team. There was lots of positives from this game, but also things to improve on. The girls next take on Platte County on Saturday @ 11:00 in the second round of the PC tournament. Goals: Addi Smith, Josie Sparks, Zoey Fredlund Assists: Addi Fischer, Josie Sparks
