Petrolia Oil Barons U12 celebrate
1st win of the season!
 

The Petrolia Oil Barons U12 girls team record their first win of the season by defeating the Corunna Wildcat's team by a score of 3-0.

In the first half, Sarah Charlton shot the ball from outside the 18 yard box right over the Corunna keepers head, putting the Oil Barons on the scoreboard 1-0. The Petrolia full backs (Haylee McFadden, Hannah Tremblay, Lexine VanLeerzen, Katelyn Murray), were on the top of their game as they defended the ball well. The mid fielders (Jenna Rops, Sarah Charlton, Mallory Straatman, Erica Vandersteen and Jennifer Zavitz), consistently pushed the ball forward. The Petrolia strikers (Rachel Coady, Gillian McGregor, Brittany Sefton, Jenna Vandeneynde, Sydney Walsh and Megan Vasey) had numerous scoring opportunities.

In the second half, Petrolia took control of the game from 2 quick goals by Brittany Sefton. There was some excitement at the Oil Barons goal line as the Petrolia keeper got a hold of the ball but was pushed into the net, body and ball, by a frustrated Wildcat. A foul was called and no goal was awarded. MacKenzie Knight had a very strong showing in net for the Oil Barons and recorded her first shut out for the season. The girls should be very proud of the way they played as this was truly a team effort and a team win.
