The PHS JV girls beat Central High School’s JV squad 4-0 on Wednesday, taking their overall record to 4-3. The Lady Vikings dominated play in the first half, but struggled to score for most of the first thirty minutes. The Vikings were without keeper Maddie George, forward Amanda Leckrone, forward Lana Aberle, and stopper Kelsi Fritts (all regular starters). Sydnea Pilkinton played keeper in the first half for the Vikings, and the rest of the roster was adjusted as well, but the ladies played hard and without making excuses. Late in the first half Molly Robb was able to finish an opportunity to give the Vikings a 1-0 halftime lead.

In the second half the Vikings looked much better offensively, connecting a few more passes, making better crosses, and finishing a few more opportunities. Sydnea Pilkinton crossed a ball on the ground to Mary Langebartel’s feet, and Langebartel was able to play the ball into the corner netting for a 2-0 lead. The third goal came when Molly Robb beat a defender and knocked the ball inside the near post side of the keeper. The final goal came again from Mary Langebartel, giving the Vikings the 4-0 victory.

Both squads head to Laquey on Thursday.
