Championship of Bob Durig Mo-Kan 2022

Game 5: The Bob Durig Mo-Kan Finals (5-0-0)
1 April vs. SM East, 1-0

Girls' Season Stats


This one lived up to the Championship billing as it was a highly contested, close match in which the Saints survived 1-0. 

Marn found Watts early on, 6 minutes in, to stake us to the lead and the final score. There was a notable physicality to the match that required some tough play from many of the Saints.

Assa was noteworthy in the back, stopping numerous attacks; Watts dropped to midfield for a lot of the match where she distinguished herself defensively as well. Cabantac and Rylance also had some tough, tough tackles. 

Payne had to make an early save or the match would have been knotted at one—just some quick hands. Take a look!

The Shots on Goal for the match were 7-5 us; that was a pretty good measure of the intensity and closeness of the match. 

Generally playing the night before Prom does not bring out the best performances from the upper class, but we did have some juniors and seniors play pretty darn well. Statistically, we did fall way off in the second half as we dropped from 6 corners to 0; we went from 6 shots to 2, whereas the Lancers got stronger.

STATS:

First Half:

Saints: Shots: 6 (5) Corners: 6 (Marn, A. Hansen, O'Keefe, Rylance, Gregovich, Watts)

34:08 Watts (Marn lifts the long through ball to Sydney)

Lancers: Shots: 2 (1) Corners: 1

Second Half:

Saints: Shots 2 (2) Corners: 0

Lancers: Shots: 4 Corners: 2

A Trip to Blue Valley

First Road Match, Game 2 (2-0-0) 24 March vs. Blue Valley (4-1) Girls' Season Stats Ok, it was in the high 30's, but it was a much better night, tonight than Tuesday.  We were dry, and without wind—so great for soccer.  I know the girls were expecting a tougher match tonight against the Tigers, perhaps a little worried about the Tigers' Arkansas signee, but for the most part it was all Saints. Assa did,however, offer up some nice 1-on-1 defending a few times during the match. I thought we were a little sluggish at the start of the second half, and then all of a sudden the Tigers cashed a deadball from 25-30, and the match was 2-1. That goal ignited the Blue Valley fans in the stands as we got 3-5 minutes of a pretty well-coordinated chant.  Watts' second goal ended the chanting, also allowing us to pretty much hold Blue Valley to not much the rest of the match. Freshman, Brooklyn Marn, nabbed her first and second goals of her young varsity career. She and S...

Wow: It was history

Game 10: (10-0-0) 22 April vs. BV North at Home, 5-2 Girls' Season Stats   EKL Standings Well, if you were lucky enough to watch this match, you got to watch history.  In 34 seasons of STA girls' soccer, never has a player scored 5 goals in one match (that's called a "glut" if you are wondering) until tonight. Sydney Watts made history! And what's interesting is just how competitive this match was. North lead, 1-0 were tied 2-2. They came within inches of making the score 3-4 at half, as they just missed a goal with 7 seconds left in the half. And Watts' goals were magnificent. She scored on 3 direct kicks, all from roughly 20-some yards—power and placement. She even bent in her 3rd corner of the year, and this one with with her right foot from the left side. Wow. Even the goal she scored off the Cabantac pass was from distance. The Saints had not given up a goal in a month or so, but we are playing without All State Centerback, Assa Kante, but North also ...
