Wesley Soccer Week #5

Wesley vs Shenandoah - Rainy and Cold (45 Degrees)...After the 3.5 hour bus journey we started out real strong in the opening minutes of the game. At the 13 minute mark we worked a ball outside to Freshman Sarah Doyle who played the perfect cross into Kim Fearnbach who finished with a quality header. The half continued with us controlling most of the possession until Shenandoah got in behind our backs and equalized just before halftime. The weather continued to get bad throughout the match which made for some very difficult conditions for both teams. After a strong 88 minutes of play we gave up a late goal with just over a minute to play. Every loss is tough but with a long journey home you have even more time to think about the game. Great effort and we continue to get stronger each game.

Wesley vs Stevenson - Big CAC game...Friday Night under the lights...The big improvement during the year continues to be the intensity and confidence in conference play. Playing strong at home this season is also something we talk about all the time. Stevenson comes into the match regionally ranked at #9 in the South Region. There was some strong play from both sides early yet Stevenson put some quality pressure on our backs and struck first in the 35th minute which proved to be the game winner. We had some great moments on and off the ball but could not finish on the night...We gave up a goal in each half and fell 2-0. The girls continue to fight and work hard which will pay off. Up next we travel to Lebanon Valley College for a non-conference game.
