The Lady Vikings are in unfamiliar territory at 3-4-0 after the first half of the district season but all and all have plenty of positives to build on as they move into Season 2.
Nolan Catholic has battled injuries and a lopsided 5-0 loss to the nations #4 team, Ursuline. The Lady Vikings received a pre-season ranking of #35 in the country by ESPNRise and beleive that that is where they belong outshooting opponents 108 to 34 through 7 games. In 3 of their 4 losses, they put 36 on target while conceding only 7. In losses to Liberty, John Paul, and TCA they also had a 21-7 corner kick advantage.
There is another 7 games to play in district and 6 teams will make the playoffs with the Lady Vikings never finishing less than 2nd. That is still in their sights as they start Season 2 with Liberty Christian at home on November 29th.
"I am proud of the way our team has responded in training and the way we compete but there is a lot more we have to offer," said Lady Vikings Jay Fitzgerald, "No one has seen our true team."
