Cookeville 5 - Cumberland County 0

Notre Dame 1

Soddy-Daisy 1

 

Both goals were scored in the first half. Soddy scored second on a beautiful cross followed with a header. I was late arriving so missed ND's goal. Both teams had equal chances in 1st half. 2nd half was a different story with ND maintaining possession on their half for the most part. I don't think Soddy got a shot off. Soddy keeper had to work for a living in this half. I believe she was a substitute and did not play in the 1st half. It was good to see lots of Soddy girls that I have watched grow up at Middle Valley.

Oak Ridge looks great, but I can't wait to see how they in the annual Katie Hunter Tourny this weekend.

Some competition will help see how tough they really are. Great Job on the rankings. Keep up the good work.

Gabby Gurrola scored NDs goal with a long shot, from outside the 18...

Kudos to both SD keepers, they played well, especially the first half keeper that almost pinned the ball against the crossbar to avoid a ND score....

It should be better than last years games. SM is playing well right now and they are still a very young team. They are doing much better this year controlling the ball. Last nights shots on goal were SM 44 and Franklin County 6. I must say the Franklin County goalie got a workout. I'm sure the shots on goal will not be this lopsided on Tuesday. Should be fun to watch.

44 shots that were all on goal! Wow! Congratulations to the Franklin County keeper for making 41 saves - or perhaps you are counting total shots. Sounds like SM has EHS challenge, lack of finishing. Our finishing % was in the dumps last night as well. Girls had tired legs, though...only one sub because of illness and injury. 21 EHS shots to ERHS' 1.

EHS- That score is suprising, from what I saw last weekend and from what East Ridge has traditionally been like, I would have thought a higher outcome for you all for sure, but a win is a win......Hope everyone gets well...hopefully you all have not have caught some of the IRISH Syndrome that has plagued us this year (We may have to put an orthopedic surgeon on retainer due to all of the players we have out right now, our sideline looks like a MASH unit)

The Franklin County goalie recorded 40 saves, if not for her this could have been ugly, she did a heck of a job.

Agree that SM should be stronger this year vs ND. With a 3-0 record, home advantage and motivation to avenge last year's meeting, SM should come out strong. Still, ND has at least ten players - starters and subs - who can and do score regularly. With a strong center midfield and a swift defensive line, ND will press SM hard in their backfield. I'll go with 5-0 ND.
