The Girls Soccer season is off to a start. Their first game of the season was a victory against Clover Hill with a final score of 3-1. The goals were scored by Junior, Samantha Martin, and Seniors, Maddie Ickes and Jenna Autry.
The team was on a pretty consistent losing streak after their victorious start to the season. They had lost 5 games in a row with 2 games being shut outs. This streak was finally broken on April 18 at a Home game against Lloyd C. Bird. The final score was 12-0.
There are a lot of talented Seniors on the team this year. Some have committed to continue their Soccer career in college and others are exploring other amazing opportunities.
