The Lady Bruins started the season strong with a 3-1 victory over the Lady Crusaders tonight, Mar. 18, at home. Senior Molly Klein lead the team with confidence, and other players such as junior Molly Gunter, sophomore Allison and senior Danni Hrdina Floyd also aided the team to victory. The win came as a major surprise, as the girls remained scoreless throughout the first quarter and gave up a goal to the Crusaders. Nevertheless, the girls came back fighting in the second quarter, quickly racking up three goals scored by junior Paige Peterson, senior Cara Wilfong and Klein, in that order.[TS_VCSC_Lightbox_Gallery content_images=”283968,283971,283970,283964,283963,283973,283967,283966,283965,283972″ content_images_titles=”Junior Molly Gunter (11)prepares to take the ball down the field after stealing it from a Helias player attempting to score.,Senior Molly Klein (10) kicks the ball in before it narrowly goes out of bounds.
