I went to the Lexington/Fort Mill game if all girls games were like this one I want to go to more girls games.
Even though the referees were horrible. There were linemen that would not keep up with the play and all the referees paid more attention to the crowd and girls on the field to decide what call to make than they did their own eyes. Referees were also random.
Crowd was awesome. Lexington boys team was there without shirts on and with numbers and names of each girl painted on their back and they made a lot of noise. We had kinda-streakers G rated run the field at half-time. Many people were there and made a lot of noise. Fort Mill had a lot of people there and they made a lot of noise too.
Lexington went up 1-0 after Kira Campbell got control of a loose ball and drove through a bunch of players to the right in the box and drew a bunch of players and the keeper and did a beautiful pass to Kelly Maupin who nailed a one-touch 5-yarder into the open goal. Fort Mill tied the game after yet-another penalty was called on Lexington and Fort Mill did a really great free kick (I think #11) and they got a combination play behind the defense and I'm not srue who scored. It was a fantastic touch lofted shot jsut over Erica Deahl's outstretched hands.
No one else scored in regulation or in the first overtime. In the second overtime Campbell took the ball at midfield and outran/faked/drove to the 25 and made a perfect pass to Allie Johns. The defenders and keeper were all focused on Campbell and Johns blasted a shot into the open net.
Both teams had strong field defenses Fort Mills was probably stronger after Lexington lost a player to injury but Erica Deahl at keeper was a big difference. Sam Decker was very good and flew around on defense breaking things up and missed something like 10-15 minutes from injury. Allie Steele when she was playing is very tough. Lexingtons forwards had problem with the pressure Fort Mills defense put on them and they way to often lost the ball there but Maupin did a lot of pressure to Fort Mill all night and I thought she did good. Fort Mill also had advantage at wing play but Lexington was much stronger in the mddle.
Overall Lexington was a little stronger in the first half but Fort Mill was a little stronger in the second half. Overtimes were back and forth a lot.
Fort Mill had two players that did specially well for it #11 and #4 (I was told this was Danielle Schmidt and Ashleigh Sheets.) #11 at forward didn't get a ton of touches because of Lexingtons defense but she did well with the touches she got and made a couple of our defenders look bad sometimes. #4 looked as good in the midfield as you can against what she had to face. In the second half they switched them to #11 at midfield and #4 up top and #11 beat our defensive middle/back when she had the ball at her feet. #11 is a really good player.
Campbell is a hulkin freakin beast. She destroyed the midfield, won balls everywhere, broke up a ton of Fort Mill offense, and started 2 tons of offense. Every time she touched the ball she had like 3 players or more on her and still she couldn't be stopped. She is sick nasty.

Glad to see Irmo and Lexington advance along with Chapin and B-C. Good job by the Midlands teams.
Dreher, congrats on a great run!
As a side note, Hurst66 must be drowning his sorrows in Tega Cay or out combing the U13 games!

FM/Lexington game was a great game. Referees were terrible but I guess that is expected. Lexington's Defense is not as impressive as everyone had said, but their goalie is amazing, probably the best I have seen. FM had numerous opportunities but missfortune combined with bad refs didn't allow them to finish. Lexington had several opps. as well. Great game on both sides. See ya next year, hopefully at Ft. Mill.

the dreher game was closer than the score indicates, chapin got two late and the blue devils almost got a goal late rolled around right in front. that was really indicative of the whole game, things just didnt go their way. tough loss. congratulations to the seniors on a good season.
i do want to say the quality of reffing in this game was not very good for a playoff game. i dont believe it affected the outcome but there were some inconsistent foul calls and the side judge on the dreher side seemed lost at times. thought i saw an uncalled handball in the box on a dreher free kick too.
