Girls Soccer team win Semi finals

Alex Garcia, Sports Editor

Last Saturday the girls soccer team earned a trip to the finals after defeating Madison college 2-0 in their semi final game.

The Chaparrals beat Madison 2-0. Not only did they shutout Madison, but that means they haven’t had a single point scored on them. The girls have scored a total of 10 points in playoffs without giving up a single goal in (how many games). So far they are looking like the team to beat in the championship.

Throughout their game against Madison, the Chaps kept the ball on Madison’s side of the field for more than 55 percent of the 80-minute game. The aggressive, ball-possession of the girls offense helped fuel the shutout

Throughout the game, the teamwork of the Lady Chaps created an aura of invulnerability. They were constantly talking on the field; everyone knew their position, and played as a unit. This was a key difference in the matchup as a lack of communication led to Madison’s inability to mount a consistent offensive attack.

There were points in the game where it seemed tMadison had just lost focus and didn’t know where to be, and the Chaps took full advantage of that to score.

That was how they acquired their first score, by taking a shot made off miscommunication between the goalie and the defender.

The ladies played fierce and with amazing teamwork to get a win. They will be heading to the finals to once again face off against Rock Valley. Last time these two teams met the Chaps won 2-0. If the girls play another strong game the way they did against Maddison, they can be Champions.
