GIRLS SOCCER
Top performer: Kaylee Coatney, Bonney Lake
1 goal, 1 assist in Bonney Lake’s win over Wilson
Bonney Lake 2, Wilson 1: The Panthers visited the league-leading Wilson Rams at Stadium Bowl on Thursday night, and avenged an early season loss with a come-from-behind win.
Captain Olivia Grob and junior Hannah Shortt led an outstanding defensive backline that bent but did not break against the vaunted Wilson attack, holding the Rams to a single goal.
Midfielders Keyaira Witt, Summer Kober and Bella Sajjidi moved the ball well and kept Bonney Lake in the game long enough to score two second-half goals.
The first goal was scored by Jasmine Smith in the 50th minute and the winning goal was scored by Kaylee Coatney in the 65th minute. Coatney assisted on Smith’s goal.
Skyline 2, Mount Si 0: The Spartans played the Wildcats on Thursday night in a KingCo 4A conference match. The first half was uneventful as both teams struggled to string offensive touches together.
The second half started out fast as Skyline’s Emma Rohleder beat her defender off a feed from Maddie Butz, drove to the goal and fired in a blast that found net just 4 minutes in.
Three minutes later, Rohleder volleyed a ball up the middle to freshman Bella Calvert-Lee, who got just enough foot on the ball to misdirect it ever so slightly for the second goal at 47:30.
From there, the Skyline defense took over, allowing one Mount Si shot on net.
