Sarnia Spirit U18
Western Ontario Youth Soccer League (WOYSL)
June 30 - July 2, 2007
On Saturday, June 30th,
the U18 WOYSL girl’s team traveled to
Guelph
to face the first place Royals. This was their first
match up of the season. The Spirit was awarded a corner
kick taken by Ashley Cechovsky.
She took a short pass to Lindsay
Postil who passed back to
Cechovsky, who crossed the ball in front of the
Royal’s keeper and managed
to sneak it over the line. A
Guelph
player ensured the ball was over the line by kicking it
to the back of their own net. The lead was short lived
as
Guelph
responded with a goal shortly thereafter. The game ended
a 1-1 tie, with each team receiving 1 point.
On July 2nd,
Sarnia traveled to
London to face the London City Fusion. It was as if
a completely different London team showed up to play
against the Spirit on this Canada Day weekend. Guest
player for the Spirit, Dana Hislop, helped put
Sarnia on the scoreboard first by using her
quickness to get around the Fusion full backs and
crossing the ball out front to Julie Kerr who shot
the ball right over the goal keeper’s head. Again
the lead was short lived as Alicia Hutchings was
required to use some strong defensive tactics deep
in Sarnia’s 18 yard box. The Fusion were awarded a
penalty kick and capitalized on the opportunity,
thus evening the game at 1 goal each. Sarnia, late
in the game had an opportunity to take the win as
they were awarded a penalty shot after Eliza Garrett
was taken down inside the Fusion’s 18 yard box.
Ashley Cechovsky took the shot however it just went
wide of the net and the Spirit had to settle for
their second tie game of the weekend
