Looking at our girls coming off the field tonight after their game with Oak Grove, you would have thought they lost 5-0. With the Cats holding a dominating 5-0 lead at the half, Harrisonville pulled a majority of the starters and chose to get some playing time and game experience for our underclassmen. Even with that, Karson Wilson was able to score two goal and got two assists and Alex Erickson got one goal in just 40 minutes of play. Freshman Brianna Kendrick got two goals and Olivia Schultz scored the last second goal. Kaley Harkrader is showing some great holding ability and play making in the midfield and earned an assist for her efforts.
Overall, the team is progressing but one free kick was all it took to squash the Cats four game shut out streak. The ball was placed near the right top of the box after an inadvertent hand ball. The initial shot careened off the left post and dropped right to the feet of an Oak Grove attacker who wasted no time in poking it home. The Cats came back in the final few seconds of the game and scored one more goal to make it 6-1 at the final whistle.
Keep your heads up ladies. You will appreciate a deeper bench as the season goes along and it takes time to develop this. This is the time of the season to fill gaps, try people in new positions and make improvements.
