The Wildcats won a nail biter tonight with a 1-0 shutout over the Excelsior Springs Tigers. The Tigers played the first half bunkered in goal as the Cats tried to go in, around and over the denfense with little to show for quality chances. The second half saw the Tigers come back invigorated and pressing attacks through the midfield but finding only a couple opportunities through our own defensive unit. Overall our shots on goal were down second half but many of the attempts were better opportunities. Karson Wilson narrowly missed a diving header and Alex Erickson rang the keepers bell a time or two. The game winner finally came to Shalyn Wheeler with her looping ball she chipped over the keeper from deep near the right end line. I expected this to be a close match and the Tigers did not disappoint. Sara Clarke and her fierce defensive unit notched yet another shutout. Well done ladies.
Next up: Pleasant Hill tomorrow night.
