Second Girls Stay on a Roll

Second Girls’ Soccer remained unbeaten with a 2-0 win at KO. The Martlets took the lead in the fourth minute when Cecilia Raymond '20 took in a beautiful pass from Lauren Way '20 behind the Wyvern back line and buried her shot by the near post. The rest of the first half featured rapid ball movement from one end to the other, but most of the deep penetrations did not generate dangerous scoring chances. Raymond did have another great chance later in the half, but did not do enough with her shot, and the first half ended with the narrow 1-0 Martlet advantage. The second half played out similarly, although both teams tired as a result of the sustained battle. The Wyverns generated better chances for themselves, but goalkeeper Lily Marvin '22 was solid in net. Susie Mahoney '20 created a particularly good chance for herself, but couldn't find a chance to pull the trigger. Finally, in the 73rd minute, the Martlets put the game away with a brilliant sequence. Raymond gathered in a ball deep in the corner. She found Ridgely Green '20, who laid a pass off to Way, whose one-time shot from just outside the 18 found the upper corner and put the game out of reach. In addition to the aforementioned, shoutouts go to Campbell Swift '21 for numerous stops at center back and crucial relief in central midfield; to Green for relentless effort in central midfield; and to Ola Szopa '20, who once again neutralized the opposing team's speedy scoring threat. Next up is a Wednesday home rematch with Deerfield.
