Middle School Girls Soccer Results, 10/03/12, PWS vs Cony‏

On October 3rd of 2012 Lisbon Middle School Girls Soccer played against Cony at home and won 4x0. It was a rainy afternoon and the Hounds displayed great individual talent and teamwork to overcome the difficulties of a muddy field and do everything right.

Defense played passionately to control the few attempts of the adversary to get close to our goal. Most of the game was played on Cony’s part of the field, but our fullbacks knew how stop the opponent’s forwards when necessary, including sweeper Sydney Douglass, stopper Sarah Daigle, left fullback Ciera Miller and right fullback Zoe Feehan. Right fullback Emma Lavesque and left fullback Emily McIntosh also helped our defense to keep the shutout.

Lisbon won the battle for the middle. Centre midfielder Chandler Riordan played with aggressiveness to win the air balls and disarm the rival in the middle. Rookie Amanda Storman played her best in the season so far, fighting for every ball in the middle and making excellent passes to our forwards. Right midfielder Jasmin Le and left Midfielder Anna Willey also played tirelessly in the middle to help Lisbon win the battle.

Hounds offensive line just did everything right today. They did everything we practiced during the week in the game. During the whole game they displayed confidence, precision and effectiveness. Right wing Conchita Thomas played boldly and scored two goals. The first one, still in the first half, by dribbling past two defenders and crossing the ball from the right to the far post, and the second one, in the second half, by taking a shot from the eighteen after receiving a precise assist from left wing Kelsea Tilley. Left wing Hope Morse scored Hound’s second goal, in the second half, by crossing the ball from the left to the far post after fighting for a rebound inside the box. The fourth goal came when left wing Hope Morse and right wing Emma Houle decided to show how in tune they are with each other: square ball from Hope to Emma, through ball from Emma back to Hope, shot in goal by Hope blocked by the goalie, rebound found by Emma, who was following the line of the ball, that ended up in the net.

As Lisbon’s coach, I saw today all I want to see my team doing on the field.

Lisbon Middle School Girls’ next game is on October 4^th, receiving Gardiner at home.
