Last Thursday, the girls soccer team hosted cross-town rival the Trinity High School Trojans in an early-season battle. The girls played really well and dominated from start to finish, sending the Lady Trojans home with a 9-1 thumping.
In the first half, the Lady Hurricanes started off with a goal from junior Emily Gerry, which was the first of her eventual hat trick. After this first goal, the confidence was contagious and overflowing. Fellow junior Delaney David, who also had a hat trick, scored all three of her goals in the first half, while senior Jaida Dominguez scored once as the Lady ‘Canes went into the half winning by a wide margin, 7-0.
It was a first half of dominance, a great balance of aggressive offense and a stout defense.
In the second half, the Lady Hurricanes did not slow down and continued to play great with two more goals from freshman Iasbella Lottig and junior Andriana Rodriguez. Although the Hurricane defense was stellar, the Lady Trojans did find a way to get on the scoreboard, but the game was already in the bag for the host Hurricanes.
With the win, the Lady ‘Canes improved their record to 4-1. Nice job, girls! Way to represent the Blue and Gold in fine fashion.
