Devils Never Give Up

A loss to the New Albany Bulldogs, 5-0, would normally get the Lady Red Devils down and out, but not last night! The girls accomplished two goals that not every team has been able to do . . . Keeping the score lower than what the Bulldogs have been used to (averaging about 10 a game) and keeping them scoreless in the second half.

The girls have much to be proud of. Knowing NA has been stomping most teams, our girls went out last night hungry to keep them at bay. The Lady Devils are showing improvement, especially with the mental game and they turned in on last night. Determined not to let the Bulldogs slaughter them, our Defense really stepped it up. Britney Lipps, Devin Conway and Rachelle Thomas all played well along with midfielder Shelby West. Our keeper, Jordan Rodeghier also had a great game and as a Freshman, is constantly improving and showing a lot of confidence in the goal.

Though no win was recorded for the Devils, standing up to the Bulldogs and showing them that the Devils will not back down was a great accomplishment for this team and shows that they are on the upside of becoming an eventual contender in the Hoosier Hills Conference! Watch out Southern Indiana . . . the Devils are on the loose!
