Nolan Catholic rolls over Parish

The Nolan Catholic Women's Soccer team rolled this evening past Parish Episcopal by a score of 3-0.  It wasn't until the second half when the Lady Vikings got on the board with goals by Marissa Baldasti, a second in as many nights for Megan Bettinger, and third added by sophomore, Kate Kleiser.

The Lady Vikings outshot Parish 25-1 in a match that saw LVS opportunities from all over the field: breakaways, crosses, combinations, set pieces, etc.

Head coach Jay Fitzgerald commented on the night, "We put major pressure on them from the opening whistle; their GK played well but we just chipped away all night and scored 3 fabulous goals."

It was a bit of a frustrating first half for the Lady Vikings as they could not buy a goal but it wasn't for a lack of rhythm.  Of the 25 shots, 18 of those were on frame.

"We had players playing all sorts of different roles from last year, and for us to create the amount of quality chances we did, is a tribute to the attention to detail this group has," said Fitzgerald.

LVS forwards, Emily Keoughan and Kat Paul both played outside back the entire second half and gave up nothing.  Centerback, Kate Kleiser pushed up to central midfield and got 2 shots off and on her 3rd, scored the final goal on the evening which turned out to be the #TACOgoal.

The Lady Vikings will stay on the road on Monday as they take on Bishop Dunne which will kick-off at 5:30pm.  This match was originally suppose to be played at Nolan but was switched to Dunne.
