NORTHPOINTE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL: 0
The Eagles kicked off the Spring 2023 soccer season on Wednesday night against NorthPointe Christian on a mild night for mid-March. At the first whistle, the Eagles were ready to go and quickly started attacking with a lot of pressure on NorthPointe’s defense. Midway through the first half, Emma VanGoor beat her defender up the left sideline and placed a shot on goal. The NorthPointe goalie made a save, and the ball ended up bouncing inside the six where Julia Timmer quickly found the back of the net for the first goal of the season putting the Eagles up 1-0 which is how the half ended.
The second half continued much like the first with the Eagles putting a lot of pressure on the NorthPointe defense and the NorthPointe goalie making several saves. Emma VanGoor continued to find success up the left side and found her first goal of the season after a scramble at the goal line. NorthPointe finished the game attacking with a few opportunities leading to a big breakaway save in the last ten minutes from the Eagles Phoebe Cracker. In the end, the Eagles secured their first win of the season with the game ending as the rain started to fall with a final score of 2-0.
