Ladies Last Ditch Effort Just Shy

The Lady Devils started off strong against Madison, scoring early in the game. Bekah Burgan made a run up the middle to only end up at the top of the 18 with three defenders on her. But able to see Sophomore, Alyssa Garcia barreling through on her right, was able to get a quick feed to Garcia, where she pounded the ball low past the goalie.

It wasn't too long that Madison was able to answer with their own goal from an unfortunate direct kick resulting from an unintentional foul away from the ball in play, making the game, 1-1.

Freshman, Shelby West really stepped it up during the game, having multiple, unlucky shots on goal. She just was not able to find the net. During the last 30 seconds of the game, West, in a last ditch effort, dribbled the ball around multiple defenders and chipped a bullet over the goalies head, only for it to find the very bottom of the crossbar and bounce back. Unfortunately no one followed for a rebound and once the Madison defenders cleared the ball, clock sounded and the game ended in a tie.
