Regional Bound; Area Champions

One down 3 to go for the Lady Vikings as they defeat Houston Awty International 8-0 today at home in front of another big crowd at Doskocil Stadium.  The Nolan Catholic community comes out again for the Lady Vikings and they were not disappointed.

Gwennie Puente started the excitement with her 1st goal in the 3rd minute of the game and then again in the 6th minute.  Freshman, Megan Bettinger comes off the bench and puts her first touch in the net putting the Lady Vikings up 3-0 just before Puente complete her hat trick.

The scoring continued with Emily Keoughan adding the next 2 goals giving the Lady Vikings a 6-0 halftime lead.

LVS head coach, Jay Fitzgerald said, "Very proud of our team for setting the tone and playing to the crowd who we can't thank enough for the the support all year long."

Marissa Baldasti and varsity newcomer, Mikaela Gamboa add to the Lady Vikings lead in the second half with their 2 goals.

Improving to 22-5-0 on the year, Nolan Catholic is crowned Area Champion with the win over Awty today and look for their 27th Regional Championship on Saturday when they take on Houston St. Agnes at 1:00pm at Waco ISD Stadium.
