CATS BEGIN WHAT I EXPECT TO BE A NEW RIVALRY

The Cats played the up and coming Pleasant Hill Chicks tonight to a 2-0 shutout. The Chicks, in their inaugeral season, proved a tough egg to crack as they were surprisingly organized and defended well over the course of the game. While not mounting much of an attack at this point in the season, they were always one breakaway from getting back in the game. This will be an even tougher team to beat later in the season. You could tell they were well coached and are going places. Do not count these Chicks out in District play. Scoring all came in the first half. Shalyn Wheeler popped off the first goal after breaking free from a scrum in the middle of the box and deftly touched a shot past the keeper. The second goal was Karson Wilson's sweet header off a Kaylee Harkrader corner. Sara Clarke and her wall like defensive unit notched yet another shutout win on the goal posts at Memorial Stadium.
