The Lady Vikings didn't waste any time as they improve to 23-1-5 on the season with a win over Houston St. Pius X this afternoon. Sarah Brown and Gwennie Puente each had a pair. Katy Hirschfeld and Marissa Baldasti added one of their own but it was Emily Keoughan, who stole the show for the Lady Vikings with 4 goals, 3 of them coming in a 8 minute span.
Head coach, Jay Fitzgerald said he is happy to get win #23 but more impressed with how they got to there. "There was a lot of top class goals today but all year we have been getting chances from a lot of different areas of the field," Fitzgerald mentioned.
Of the 27 players on the team, 24 of them got on the field today. The level got better every time there was a change. "We started a little slow but we haven't played a game in a while and I think we had to get our second wind due to the warm temperature," said Fitzgerald.
The field temperature at game-time topped 80 degrees and by the time the Lady Vikings take the field again on Monday night, it will have dropped some 40 to 50 degrees.
The Lady Vikings look for #24 and are set to travel to Waco ISD Stadium on Monday night to take on Austin St. Michael's. Kick-off is scheduled for 7:30pm.
