Eastside 2 Wren 0
On a pleasant, dry evening at Furman University, the Eastside Lady Eagles hosted the Wren Lady Hurricanes. It was the end of the regular season and senior night when 4 seniors were honored, Regan Hayes (GK), Kendall Rice (Def), Rebecca Rush (Mid), and Merrideth Wade (Mid).
The first goal was scored by Abby Martin and assisted by Brentley Roberts after a mad cap play in front of the Wren goal. The goalie had misjudged the ball and it bounced around in front of the goal until Brentley toe poked it towards the opening and Abby crushed it into the back of the net. The first half was mostly Lady Eagles with a few Wren forays into the Eastside defense.
The second half was more to Wren's favor. A lot of back and forth at midfield catching the Eagle's flatfooted. Leah Yokel finally scored the second goal to firmly put the game away. The action swayed back and forth in the breeze until the final whistle.
Congratulations to the seniors and good luck at college. Good luck and best wishes as you enter the playoffs.
