Lady Pioneers Lose To Pointers
Senior Erika Magana prepares to pass the ball to a teammate.
Monday night, April 11, the Gentry soccer teams traveled to Van Buren to partake in yet another soccer game. The junior varsity girls’ team played at 4:00 p.m. and ended up falling to the Pointers by a score of 2-0.
The varsity girls game followed at 5:00 p.m. Although the Lady Pioneers fought hard against the 6A school, they ultimately could not pull out a victory. The varsity game finished with a final score of 4-0.
Despite the end result, the Pioneers were able to power through and make some key plays during the game. Sophomore goalkeeper Chastery Fuamatu had an epic save on a penalty kick early in the first half due to senior Brittney Atwood fouling an offensive opponent inside the 18-yard line.
Fuamatu claims that the penalty kick was just “One more stop along the way,” and is looking forward to their next game against Huntsville on April 18th, 2016.
