A win and a tie for Garretson Soccer this past week.
First came a home game win last Tuesday against one of the best teams in the league.
“West Central was a big win for us, as they are #1 in our class!,” said Head Coach Amber Williamson. “The girls came out focused and determined. Zero to zero at the half, and then Paige Sterud scored off a cross from Raegen Altman. A second goal came when Jordyn Williams drew a foul in the 18 yard box and Paige Sterud again scored on a Penalty Kick!”
Traveling to Worthington, Sept. 12 the Lady Dragons ended with a tied game.
“Against Dakota Valley we came out strong and scored a goal in the first half by Joely Sterud,” said Coach Williamson. “We took the lead 1-0 going into half time. First part of the second half, Raegen Altman found the back of the net after the Dakota Valley goalie mis-handled the ball. Dakota Valley finished the game strong, scoring 2 goals in the last 5 minutes on corner kick opportunities so the game ended in a 2-2 tie.
As for the homecoming game this week, Coach Williamson said, “Vermillion is ranked at #2 and we are looking to bounce back from our previous loss to them the first game of the season.”
Results were pending at press time.
