Fifth
seeded Windham faced off against fourth seeded Gorham in the Class A South
Quarterfinal playoff game, played at Massabesic High School in Waterboro on
Tuesday, October 29th.
The
Lady Eagles came out aggressive and ready to play. Less than 2:30 into the
first half, Emma Millett, #4, rocketed the ball past the keeper and put Windham
on the board very early on. The Lady Eagles worked to be first to the ball, had
strong offense and defense and kept up their intensity during the half.
Half:
1-1
Windham
began the second half intense, pressuring Gorham right from the start. They
passed the ball well with excellent defense and offense, taking multiple shots
on goal. The Lady Eagles worked extra hard and left everything on the field,
but Gorham managed to get by.
Final:
2-1, Gorham
“Getting
that first goal right away was huge,” observed coach Deb Lebel. “In terms of
shots, we did outshoot them, I do feel like we had some momentum. We came
together as a full team...this was not the same team that started in September.
Kids have stepped up; great group of kids...the future is bright for the girls
next season.”
