Sarnia Girls Soccer
Sarnia Spirit U11

Challenge Cup
Semi- Finals
September 20, 2009

Sarnia Spirit U11 girls play in the Challenge Cup Semi Final game against the undefeated North London Super Sonics. The Super Sonics have three goals against the entire season. They only tied one game, and that was of course against Sarnia.

The Super Sonics started the game with confidence, not giving Sarnia a lot of room to make their plays. They created a few chances before opening the score. A few minutes later the Sarnia defence could not clear the ball far enough, and the Super Sonics capitalized again.

This was the motivation Sarnia needed. They came on strong and created some good opportunities, but could not defeat the London keeper in the first half. Sarnia started the second half the way they ended the

first: strong and confident. Early in the half a cross from Claire Vandenende was too much for the keeper, who left a rebound for Katie Barwitzki to find the back of the net. With only one goal difference and about half an hour left to play, Sarnia's hopes were high, and so was their playing. Fantastic attitude, drive and determination was shown, however the Super Sonics stood their ground. The final score was Super Sonics 2, Sarnia 1. The season is over, but with a solid second spot in the regular season, the team will move up a level next year. We are very proud!
