Huron- Very offensive game for us with a lot of opportunities. Scored early in the 1st half when Paige Sterud bended the ball in on her own from a corner kick. 2nd goal came in the 2nd half. A corner by Joely Sterud set up the opportunity for Morgan Damman to knock the ball down and Jenna VanHolland to bury it in the back of the net. We were unable to capitalize on other opportunities and the game ended with us winning 2-0. We had 32 total shots on goal. Joely Sterud had 6, VanHolland 5. Damman, Kaycie King, and Raegen Altman all had 4 shots. Madison Ljunggren, Paige Sterud, and Leigha Lacey each had 3.
Tea- We knew going into Tea, our defense was going to be tested. As a team we focused on controlling the controllable and our effort and attitude was there all game. The game was tied 0-0 at half and remained that way throughout the second half until the final 5 minutes, when Tea capitalized on a cross and found the back of the net. Kayla Gezlinger was in goal and recorded 17 saves on the day. VanHolland, P. Sterud, King, & Altman all had 1 shot on goal.
