The Nugget Newspaper - News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon

The Lady Outlaws soccer team dropped both of their matches last week by narrow margins.

On Tuesday, September 13, the Lady Outlaws lost 2-0 at home to 4A Summit.

Summit scored one goal in each half. Both Sisters and Summit had approximately 10 shots on goal but Summit was able to finish two of their opportunities.

Coach Lee Bellahdid said, “We actually played better than Summit the first half of the game, but they had possession more during the second half. We really need to work on possession and finishing.”

Four days later Sisters lost 2-1 at Valley Catholic (VC).

VC scored their first goal off a header from a cross corner kick.

Rose Slavkovsky scored off a breakaway thanks to an assist from Danielle Elder. The goal tied the game 1-1.

VC scored their final goal two minutes into the second half to take a 2-1 lead.

Bellahdid said “Valley Catholic is a team we could have beat if we would have cared. We didn’t care. We need heart and desire to win.”

On the positive side Bellahdid commended the play of Tori Carlson, McKenzie Williams and Nicole Veloso:

“These three girls had a great game. They all gave 110 percent.”
