Gorge Girls Tournament (April 2nd)

LISA Game 9 > LISA u10G vs Gorge Cordick (0-0)

The first of two Sunday games vs Gorge u11Teams turned out to be a very physical game and the LISA girls where up to the challenge! Many hard fought 1v1 situations with most of the play in the midfield. All fifteen 'team players' played very important roles in this match! Robert coached once again and tried different line-up combinations using the two C/K-atherines together as forwards for the first time this season! Lindsey and Montana where also paired up. Bri played back on defense with Leslie, Ally and Zoe for large portions of the game. The midfield of Alynn, Monique, Haley, Amal, Natashya, Thea *all* played strong two-way soccer! Keeper Michaela had a relatively calm first (of 3) game of the day (1W and 2T)!

The excellent Gorge player seen above was a constant runner and our LISA girls had to work hard to stay with her but our defenders where up to the challenge, Gorge had few shots on the goal in this game!! Monique had some excellent runs down the left wing in this game and made some very nice crosses to the goal area, the vocal Gorge keeper was tested infrequently but did prevent 2 excellent 'goal mouth scrambles' from going into her net. Montana took some excellent corner kicks! Behind our 9am game vs Gorge the LakeHill u11G Lightning team is warming up for their 10am game! Sunday would see Monique and Montana play in 3 straight games! Montana scored 3 goals on the day playing in 4 games on Sunday. Over the weekend Michaela was in goal for large portions of 7 games including all three LISA games! Michaela ended the weekend with a GPG* of 1.33 (LISA games) for an excellent record! Well done keeper! Three of our players who don't usually draw a lot of attention came up big in this game with strong individual play: Alynn, Haley and Lindsey..but all 15 players demonstrated why the team has preserved 4 draws this season against opponents>> by playing a strong defensive midfield game.
