On Thursday, the girls soccer team played in the West Niagara Tournament. The girls had a very successful day, tying 2 games, and winning 2 games earning their spot in the finals. By the end of the semi - finals the team dominated and had 8 goals for and only 1 goal against. The girls played West Niagara in the finals, playing with so much heart and grit. It was 0-0 at full time and headed in penalty kicks. Although we didn’t get the result we wanted, the day ended on a great note and looking forward to the next few weeks of the season. Julianne M., Leah W. (who scored 3 goals), Rylee S., Scarlett S., and Camyron D. scored at the tournament, and amazing saves and play by Lily R.. A reminder we have practice tonight right after school.
