Junior Varsity Highlights  

 CMS 7 to Stewart’s Creek 0  

 Karmen Intintoli 1 goal 1 assist  

Abby Woods 1 assist  

Charlotte Kerr 1 goal 1 assist  

Amelia Bogle 2 goals 2 assists  

Avery Dale 1 goal  

Sadie Craig 1 assist  

Abbi Junkins 1 goal  

Laila Warren 1 goal 1 assist  

Clean sheet and outstanding goalkeeping by Ella Agee. Making the choice to come out of the goal and stop that one on one shot takes killer instinct. Way to be brave!  

Shout out for the biggest junior varsity win margin! Again, no one person stood out offensively because you all played an unselfish game as a team. I have to recognize Carly Delaney for her defensive improvement. I saw her make smart decisions under big pressure.
