Despite the rain and wet field conditions at Francis Howell North, the Lady Lancer soccer team started off strong against Howell North in the 20th annual St. Dominic/Howell North Shootout.
““It’s old-time soccer, the way the game used to be played all the time,’’ Walters told the Post-Dispatch. “But I don’t think the girls enjoyed it quite as much as I did. I think they were just happy to get back on the bus and to get out of here.’’
The team opened pool play with a 5-0 victory over Howell North on April 26 before facing Parway West on April 28. The Lancers then defeated the Longhorns 2-1, setting them up to compete for the pool B title against Cor Jesu on April 28.
The team fell to Cor Jesu 2-1, earning them second place in their pool at the Shootout.
The Lady Lancers now have an overall record of 12-6-0, 5-1 in Conference, leaving them in first place in Suburban West. They will next compete at Incarnate Word at 4:15 on May 2.
