August 7th Sarnia Spirit
(1) vs. Dorchester (1)
Sarnia hosted Dorchester August
7th in their 2nd meeting of league play. With Sarnia and
Dorchester very close in the standings, Sarnia was hoping
for the win to keep them ahead of Dorchester. Dorchester
came out fairly strong and seemed to take control in the
first half creating many scoring opportunities, however,
Sarnia's Mackenzie Turner made some spectacular diving saves
keeping the Spirit girls well in the game. Dorchester would
come out scoring first at the 11 minute mark and the score
would end 1-0 going into the 2nd half. Sarnia created a
couple of beautiful scoring chances but could not find the
back of the net. The 2nd half proved to be a little slower
but at the 12 minute marker, Lilia Pasqual would take a free
kick just outside of the 18 yard box, perfectly placing the
ball in front of the net. Amy Rawlings headed the ball
toward the net, Sidney Weiss then took a second header
putting the ball into the opposing net. The game would
end in a draw, with a final score of 1-1.
August 9th Sarnia Spirit
(1) vs. Kitchener (4)
Having played Kitchener earlier
in the season and ending with a draw 0-0, the Sarnia girls
were hoping for a well matched game. With Kitchener
currently in 3rd place in the standings, the girls knew
they were up against a tough game. Kitchener is a strong
team and were able to come up with the first goal 15 minutes
into play. Only 2 minutes later, Sarnia was able to respond
with their first. Amy Rawlings, playing stopper for
Sarnia, placed a strong kicked ball up to Alicia DaSilva.
Alicia took the pass from mid field, broke through two
defenders and as the Kitchener goalie advanced out of the
net, Alicia pushed the ball into the corner of the net. At
the 23 minute marker, Kitchener was able to respond with yet
another goal. The score would be 2-1 going into the 2nd
half. Mackenzie Turner was able to make some brilliant
saves, however, Kitchener's offense was too strong for the
Spirit and Kitchener would score twice more giving them the
win with an end result of 4-1.
