Swimmer1 --
Wando played their usual gorgeous team play with crisp passing and long runs down the field (usually from the left) looking for crossing shots to the right. West Ashley's defense rose to the occasion and limited their scoring to a PK and a really nice free kick from 30 yards out that bounced around a bit in front of the goal and was popped in. West Ashley scored on a PK (Alexis Brothers) and two powerful breakthroughs down the middle (one short, one from about mid field) by Meech Gibbs, who had a great game. It was nice to see Julie back on the field after a week off due to an eye injury.
Wando and James Island play Tuesday night and I am of the humble opinion that the JI defense is too strong and their offensive weapons too many for Wando to beat them. I think the time of unquestioned Wando domination of Charleston 4-A girls' soccer is over.
