Gold Game Results: Thursday, Nov. 14. Chargers 1: Keswick 5

Pressure. Diligence. Focus. These are the best words to describe the opening night of the Shorecrest MD Girls Gold Soccer fall season at Keswick Christian.

Putting its emphasis on defense at the start of the game, the Chargers primary defenders -- Alex H., Jacqui B., Nikki L. and Camille P-F. -- limited a hard-charging opponent to six shots on goal in the first half and half as many in the second.

When the Shorecrest offense attacked in the second half, Anna M. took the team's first shot on goal of the evening and assisted Lindsey L. on the team's first point of the season. The offense, including Marielle S., Reilly K., Kyra B. and Anna P., plus midfielders Aliyah S., Julia G., and the absolutely sparkling Haley T. and Karli M., gave the visiting team and a large contingent of friends and family much to cheer about in the second half.

This game marked the Shorecrest debut of two new keepers with a great deal of promise, Keaton P. and Elizabeth S.

Final score, Keswick 5, Chargers 1.

Next game is Tuesday, November 19 @ 4 p.m. HOME vs. Tampa Prep on the PE/Intramural Field.

The new hoodies are in and they're fantastic!

Coach Bob Andelman models the new Shorecrest Prep MD Girls Soccer hoodies. Frankly, they look much cuter on the players, but we didn't have any photos of them.
