North Marion 2, Hidden Valley 0

Marist Catholic 2, Philomath 0 – The Spartans scored twice in the final 10 minutes of the match to break the stalemate. Senior captain Kallie Harding scored first by one-timing a cannon into the upper left corner of the net. Eight minutes later, junior forward Abbie Chambers scored on a highlight reel header off of a corner kick from senior captain Ella Coulombe. Chambers outjumped two defenders to win the header, which found the upper right corner of the net. “This was a very, very physical game from start to finish,” said Marist coach Stefan Schroffner. “Give credit to Philomath who tried to take us off of our game with their physical play and continuously booting long high balls into our defense and running at us. It was difficult to play against their ‘boot-n-run’ style of play but in end, we settled down in the 2nd half and broke them down with our skill and possession and finally finished them off with two well-earned goals. A ton of credit goes to our defense which I think are the unsung heroes of our season so far. They worked tirelessly today, played as a complete unit, and dealt with everything that came their way. We’ll take the shutout win.”
