Freshman, Katherine Gilpin scored the first goal of her high school career scoring the lone goal of the night for her JV team. She took a well played ball from Anna Keller in behind to score the first high school goal of her career. With the JV under pressure for the first 15 minutes of the match, they started stringing together some passes giving them a nice rhythm, the games first goal, and they didn't take the foot off the pedal the rest of the game. The result is the first win one the season with an overall record of 1-2-2 with 3 of those preseason games coming against varsity competition in the Liberty Varsity Tournament before Thanksgiving.
The varsity started strong sending a wave of players forward in the first 10 minutes off the match capitalizing in the 8th minute with Kate Kleiser threading a ball through to Hannah Allred for the 1-0 Lady Vikings lead. Eight minutes later Allred strikes again off an assist from Katee Kimmey.
"This was a solid performance from our group tonight. We attacked in waves with everyone making an impact on and off the ball. We were very consistent tonight and our value of the ball was the best so far this year," said LVS head coach, Jay Fitzgerald.
Senior, Emily Keoughan scored the 3rd goals of the match in the 25th minute. She was rewarded with her second goal in the second half, both assisted by Allred.
The Lady Vikings came out in the second half with a comfort about them taking them a while to attack with the efficiency they had in the first half. It only took a 9 minute span for the Lady Vikings to add 3 more goals. Allred, Keoughan, and Brennan Flynn scored in the 60', 62', and 69 minute.
The Lady Vikings take to the road on Thursday as they travel to Bishop Lynch with the JV kicking off at 6:00pm and the varsity to follow at 7:30pm.
