On Tuesday the girls varsity soccer
team played Potters House Christian Schools at the Salvation Army
field in Grand Rapids. The field looked nice from far away but when
the girl's got up close to the field they realized that the ground
was hard and bumpy with some big divots in it. There was no middle
school game before the varsity game so they warmed up right when they
got to the field. Madison Price was not able to play because of
problems with her leg so Bria Hinken took
her place as stopper.
The first goal of the game was off a
free kick taken by Samantha Rasmusen from about ten to fifteen feet
outside of the eighteen box. Her shot was placed perfectly in the
upper right corner of the goal. From there there was one more goal in
the first half, scored by Bria Hinken, making the game two to zero.
The girls played a solid first half.
During half time coach Zehr told the
girls not to let up because even one goal can change the makeup of
the game. The second half started and Potters House got a goal about
five or ten minutes into the second half. This goal didn't stop the
girls from doing what they knew they could do. The next goal was
scored by Brianna Zehr, it was a beautiful goal. The next goal was
scored by Britney Zehr. The last goal that was scored in the game was
by Sophia Zelenka as a penalty kick. The reason she got the shot was
because one of Potters House's defenders tripped her in the box.
The final score of the game was five to
one with the Calvary Eagles coming out on top. The Eagles are
undefeated in their conference so far.
