GHS Soccer Update

Date:

Amber Williamson, Head Girls Soccer Coach

We traveled to Sioux Falls Christian on Thursday, August 17th. Focus going in was on doing the little things, playing quickly, being aggressive, and smart on defense. SFC brought the ball down the side of the field, crossed it back post, and scored within the first 3 minutes of the game.

After that, we took over and it was a back and forth battle. We had chances throughout the game to even it up, and did not capitalize on those chances. Kayla Genzlinger was fantastic in goal and recorded 7 saves on the day. Getting in on the offensive side of the field was Jenna VanHolland with 3 shots on goal. Jordyn Williams, Morgan Damman, and Paige Sterud each had a shot on goal as well. Playing a big role in the defensive line all game were Tori Lodmell, Miriam Pickard, Kaycie King, Raegen Altman, and Leigha Lacey.

We play Mitchell away on Thursday. We are already in the second half of the season, and are working on turning those close game losses into wins to finish out the regular season. Our next home game is against West Central on September 8th. (Results not available by press time.)
