Strong play from our JV team in their first competition.
Our center backs, CC Cook '29 and Emily Mallal '28 were working hard to keep shape, get clears, and communicate with their teammates in their first game of the season. Keepers Tate Dawkins '30 and Hattie Bishop '29 both had strong showings with several saves!
The Panthers were able to get one past us and that ended up being the final score, however the Tigers had several shining moments. Charlotte Kehler '29 and Amelia Wilson '29 were strong in the center midfield position, distributing the ball and winning big tackles. Norah Clarke '29 was a standout at the outside midfield position, heading the ball, getting down the line and crossing dangerous balls in front of FRA's goal.
We're looking forward to improving in games to come!
