Ozark Conference Soccer

Lebanon Yellowjackets – 2
Rolla Bulldog – 3
The Bulldogs opened the scoring this evening on Taylor Banholzer’s goal but the Yellowjackets fought back, getting goals from Abby Zimmerman and Tori Wood to take the lead into halftime. It was Rolla who came out hard to start the 2nd half, in face of approaching weather, getting a pair of opportunistic goals to take the lead into the lightning delays that began with 14 min remaining. Taylor Banholzer, playing up top rather than her traditional defensive position, slipped a ball just beyond the keepers reach as a cross from the left side was knocked down by a Lebanon defender into Banholzer’s path. Ellen Spooner got the potential game-winner when she slipped in-between a pair of defenders as they waited for the other to play the ball.

14 min remain, lightning delay at 8:08 pm, finally called. JV result = Lebanon 1, Rolla 2

Hillcrest Hornets host Glendale Falcons – rescheduled to May 2nd

Joplin Eagles host Waynesville Tigers – rescheduled to April 27th

West Plains Zizzers - 0
Kickapoo Chiefs – 1
Senior Katie Lynn buried a 17th minute PK for the game winner. Zizzer keeper Sammi Phegley set the Zizzer’s career save record during the match.

Camdenton Lakers – 3
Parkview Vikings – 2
The Laker’s took an early lead on Ashleigh Paschel’s 3rd minute goal, a blast that went through the keepers hands. Freshman Emma Chilton tied the game for Parkview when she dribbled around the keeper after picking up a loose ball, scoring from inside the box. After halftime, Whitney Snow buried her 50th minute shot and Meagan D’Arcy scored in the 60th from Pachel’s corner kick. Holly Messick scored on a breakaway but the Vikings were unable to muster a tying goal.

Ozark Conference

The first week of full games, Kickapoo is 1-0 in the Conference going into tonight, courtesy of a win over Lebanon in late March.

Hillcrest Hornets – 0
Camdenton Lakers – 10

Joplin Eagles – 0
Glendale Falcons – 6
The text I got indicated the trio got a duo which I interpret to mean that senior Emily Cline and juniors Molly Brewer and Alix Opfer all scored twice in Tuesday’s game at Joplin. UPDATE – Alix Opfer (2G/1A), Emily Cline (2G), Molly Brewer (2G), Drianna Raff (1A). Glendale JV defeated Joplin Eagles, 3-0.

Lebanon Yellowjackets – 4
West Plains Zizzers – 0
From ZizzerSoccer.com – a couple of good saves by Sammi Phegley kept things close. A 14th minute goal by Jessica Ogle as she beat Phegley just inside the post to give Lebanon a 1-0 halftime lead. The Yellowjackets scored 3 more in the final 10 minutes. Carsyn Beard converted a PK, Abigale Zimmerman was credited with a goal when she came crashing in on a cross and the final goal came on a shot from about 18 yards out.

Kickapoo Chiefs – 4
Waynesville Tigers – 0

Rolla Bulldogs – 3
Parkview Vikings – 2
Rolla got goals from Nicole Howard, Ellen Spooner and Emily Carroll as they held off the visitors. Parkview’s goals were scored by Molly Robb and Holly Messick.

Rolla Bulldogs Focusing On Offense

After finishing tied for 3rd in the Ozark Conference, with Northern neighbor Camdenton, the Bulldogs lost 1-0 in the District Final’s last year to Jeff City, on a goal scored in the final 3 minutes of the game. Combined with an OT loss to Glendale and a 2-3 loss to Kickapoo during Ozark Conference play, the Bulldogs know what they need to do to get back to their winning ways in post-season. Daily News Sports Editor Dave Roberts diggs into the details with RHS girls’ soccer looking for more offense in 2010

Rolla, Mo. —
The Rolla High School girls’ soccer team will be looking for more offense this spring. The Lady Bulldogs had a strong defensive effort throughout 2009, allowing just 17 goals all season long.

However, RHS simply couldn’t find the back of the net enough on the other end of the field. Rolla finished with a 16-7-3 record last year, reaching the district tournament championship game.

From that squad seven starters and 10 varsity lettermen return. Leading the charge for RHS is senior goal-keeper Adrian Pogue, an all-state selection last season. Pogue recorded 14 shutouts last season and is the Lady Bulldog career shutout leader with 34.

RHS will start three defenders – senior Katherine McCaulla, sophomore Kendra Wood and junior Ashlee Rightnowar.

Starting outside midfielders are senior Katelyn Maddy and sophomore Taylor Tronstad while the center midfielders are sophomore Taylor Banholzer and senior Jaclyn Standfast.

The three forwards are seniors Olivia Cox and Kaylyn Stoll and junior Ellen Spooner.

Rolla is scheduled to begin the season on Friday, March 26, opening the Central Federal/RHS Girls’ Soccer Classic against Washington at 5 p.m. on Kiwanis Field. RHS is also scheduled to play Springfield Catholic at 9 a.m. and Columbia Hickman at 2:45 p.m. on Saturday, March 27 in the event.

Class 3 District 10 High School Girls Soccer Preview

The regional papers are finally taking a look at Girls Soccer, almost on the eve of the season. Let’s see what they have to say:

Rolla Bulldogs vs Springfield Catholic at Rolla ClassicRolla Lady Bulldog soccer team on a mission to win

Mike Howard is accustomed to winning. And failing to get to the district finals for only the second time in the program’s history didn’t sit well with the only head coach the Rolla High School girls’ soccer team has ever known.

But that’s history. Howard has a deep and talented squad to make a push for the state playoffs this year. Rolla returns 11 varsity lettermen, including nine starters. And most of those players have been either two- or three-year starters for the squad.

In goal Rolla returns junior Adrian Pogue. At centerback is senior Rachel Zamazanuk and freshman newcomer Taylor Banholzer while the right outside back is senior Amanda Rogers and the left outside back is junior Katelyn Maddy.

The center-midfielders are senior Emily Spooner and junior Jaclyn Standfast while the outside midfielders are senior Kim Carter on the right side and sophomore Ellen Spooner on the left side. The starting forwards are senior Ashley Kerr and junior Olivia Cox.

All I can say is, wow! The Lady ‘Dog varsity team is slated to open play by hosting the Central Federal Savings & Loan/Rolla Invitational March 27-28.

Waynesville Tigers at Springfield Catholic Fightin' IrishWaynesville Lady Tigers soccer kickin’ it with new head coach

The Waynesville Lady Tiger soccer team will see a lot of changes this season. After losing 10 seniors to graduation, 8 of whom were starters and included second-team all-state forward Katie Pritchard, the Lady Tigers also have a new head coach. Mike Gow comes to Waynesville from Lebanon, where he was the head coach of the team that eliminated the Lady Tigers in the district semifinals last year.

“I have big hopes for Erica [Combs] and Orielle [Thomas, senior midfielders],” he said. “They’ll both have to be leaders.”
Combs, a team captain, agreed that this season might be a “rebuilding year” but there’s no lack of talent. “I think talent-wise, we’re just as solid as we were last year,” she said. “We lost 8 starters but we have 6 players with varsity experience.”

Plus, there’s a lot of parity in the Ozark Conference. No team, she said, looks overpowering, although Gow said he thinks that Rolla will be the team to beat.

The Lady Tigers will kick off their season next Tuesday March 24th against Jefferson City Helias.

Kickapoo Chiefs vs Camdenton Lakers
Camdenton Lady Lakers get set for soccer season

The Camdenton girls soccer team lost 15 seniors to graduation this offseason, but they might have the pieces to reload and continue their success, following last season’s 16-8 record.
“We have a pretty solid nucleus,” head coach J.D. Hunter said. “We’ll see where it takes us.”

A couple of returning midfielders, LaTea LaRue and Haley Baker will lead the charge in that department. Both are strong, physical athletes. Hunter said the pair should be a “force to be reckoned with.”
Up front, the Lakers return their No. 2-goal scorer from a year ago in senior Stephanie Kirvan.

The Lakers open their season on Monday March 23rd, hosting the Richland Bears.

Missing – Lebanon Yellowjackets and Jeff City Jays. I’ll update this story if anything comes out in the next couple of days.

SGFsoccer.com Names First All-Ozarks Freshman Squad

A common theme the past two seasons has been the increasing quality of the players who are advancing to the high school ranks. I wrote about it May 1st when I interviewed Natalie Smid and Rachel Scott of Springfield Catholic. I still remember the job that Ozark’s freshman did last year when the Tigers Opened Irish Eyes. Those sophomore players are now being clearly recognized as difference makers.

So I thought I’d tread some new ground and offer my personal take on a group of players that made a significant impact this year as freshman. I asked the coaches for their nominations, narrowed the list based upon my experience, and went back to the coaches a second time. My goal was to create a select list, a team that could come out and compete with some of the best in the region right now. I think we accomplished that with this group, the first of what I hope to make a regular effort. So here’s my All-Ozarks Freshman team.

    Forwards

Springfield Catholic vs Kickapoo ChiefsShelby Hatz, Springfield Catholic
Recognized as a 1st Team Regional player, Shelby wasted no time going forward and creating offensive opportunities for the Irish this year. Blessed with speed and attitude, she gave the Irish a a true 1-2 punch paired with Anna Delong up top. She delivered, scoring 19 goals (1st) and 51 (2nd) points with 13 (2nd) assists for the Irish. Shelby could develop into a top college prospect.

Glendale Falcons vs Kickapoo ChiefsMcKenna Adams, Kickapoo Chiefs
Didn’t show up on the varsity roster immediately for the Chiefs, but wasted no time in making an impact, scoring within minutes of coming on in the 2nd half against Rogers (AR) on March 29th. Her stats aren’t gaudy (6 goals and 4 assists this season) but defenses always knew when she had come in. McKenna earned Honorable Mention Ozark Conference and 2nd Team District recognition.

Bolivar Liberators vs Willard TigersJonna Welch, Bolivar Liberators
The photo tells the story of Jonna. The best forwards don’t have an off button and enter another zone when they reach the 18 yard box, much like Jonna. Jonna paired with Lindsy Archer up top and helped the Liberators reach the District final this year. She has the best shot in this group and was the leading scorer for the Liberators with 19 goals. Jonna is a 1st Team Central Region player.

    Midfielders

Glendale Falcons vs Incarnate Word Red Knights, QuarterfinalEmily Cline, Glendale Falcons
1st team, All-Ozark Conference, the only freshman to earn that distinction and one of the best athletes in the region. Emily has speed, leaping ability and was the leading scorer on the top Class 2 program in the region. 22 goals, 10 assists for 54 points, it’s her willingness to cover the flank defensively as well that makes her the most valuable player in this group.

Springfield Catholic beat Glendale Falcons in PK'sNatalie Smid, Springfield Catholic
Every team needs a playmaker, a two-way player with the technical skills and vision to bring the best out in their teammates. Natalie distinguished herself in that regard this year, exceeded in Class 1 only by her teammate Tara Bailes. It’s the most important position on the field and it will be her job next year. Natalie earned 1st Team Central Region recognition.

Parkview Vikings host Greenwood Blue JaysKelsey Loderhose, Parkview Vikings
One of several players on this list that was called on to deliver from a variety of positions this year, her most valuable contribution to the Vikings this year was when she moved into the middle. Kelsey’s work rate and tackling skills solidified the defense. Her attacking skills are top notch as well. Ozark Conference and District Honorable Mention honors.

Coach Mike Howard, Rolla Bulldogs, Wins 500th GameEllen Spooner, Rolla Bulldogs
One of two players described by their Coach as being needed on the field, which translated to playing every position but goalkeeper as the season progressed. Ellen’s ability to contribute across all of these roles is the foundation of a good midfielder and the reason she made this team at that position. Scored 8 goals while contributing 5 assists, she was 4th on the team in total points.

    Defenders

Kickapoo Chiefs vs Camdenton LakersKate Bess, Kickapoo Chiefs
Like her teammate McKenna, Kate was not on the early season rosters at Chiefs games but she was on the pitch. The best defenders are almost invisible in the sense that you may not notice them until they screw up. Kate was solid, reliable and when the Chiefs needed some players to step up in a season filled with injuries, she was there the entire season.

Springfield Catholic vs Bolivar Liberators Andrea Parker, Springfield Catholic
This is a player I neglected to recognize all season but will be a name to be reckoned with for the next three years. Playing primarily as a stopper in front of Anne Prenger, her skills and work rate gave the Irish another midfielder effectively. Look for her to step into Prenger’s position as sweeper next year, and continue the Irish dominance in the region. 2nd Team District honors.

Kickapoo Chiefs vs Camdenton LakersKali Kuse, Camdenton Lakers
A number of teams established new levels of achievement this season, and those improvements always start with defense. The Laker’s saw their goals allowed this year drop significantly, and it started with their sweeper. As important as Kali’s technical skills was her calmness under pressure, a quiet confidence that reflected onto her back line mates and helped Camdenton reach a new level of wins.

Glendale Falcons vs Ozark TigersJayme Braun, Ozark Tigers
The second player on this list who was called upon to play every position but goalie for her team. Working primarily as an outside midfielder and outside defender, Jayme left it all on the field. Equally comfortable in the attack or going in for a hard tackle, she helped establish a new attitude for the Tigers that will enhance their pursuit of the first ever Central Ozark Conference title next season. 2nd Team District honors.

    Goalkeeper

Springfield Catholic beat Glendale Falcons in PK'sRachel Scott, Springfield Catholic
What can you say about the goal keeper that helped lead the Irish to their first ever “Springfield City Championship”? With wins over Kickapoo and Glendale, she established herself as one of the top keepers in the region, regardless of class. MVP GK, Central Region honors, she finished 16-5-2 with 12 shutouts.

    Honorable Mention

Alex Cantrell, Marshfield Blue Jays, Forward
Alex is likely to set scoring records for the Blue Jays as her career progresses. 1st Team District honors.

Kelsey Haist, Nixa Eagles, Midfield
Asked to move to central midfield for the first time in her career, Kelsey earned 1st Team District honors for her work. She scored 7 goals, had 1 assist and was the second leading scorer after Stephanie Allen. Update – Honorable Mention Southwest Region!

Carsen Baron, Springfield Catholic, Midfield
A player who played every position except forward, she could develop into one of the best holding midfielders. Great long range shooting ability. 2nd Team District honors, Carsen had 6 assists and 5 goals this year.

McKenzie Payton, Parkview Vikings, Defender
One of only four freshman on the Ozark Conference list, McKenzie earned 2nd Team honors and is a relentless outside defender. 2nd Team Ozark Conference and Honorable Mention District honors.

Kristin Miller, Nixa Eagles, Goalkeeper
Helped keep the Eagles close in every game this year, will be part of an Eagles team that will need her after losing their top 2 career scoring leaders (Yach 2007, Allen 2008).

In the 44th minute, Michelle Esterle carried the ball down the field on the counterattack. Rachel Skelly made a late run into the play. Esterle laid the ball off to Skelly who worked a give and go to Esterle. As she entered the 18-yard box, Esterle sent a shot past Joplin Keeper Randi Russell to cut the lead to 2-1.

Rolla Bulldogs – 2
Hickman Kewpies – 0
A blast from just outside the box early in the second half by Ashley Kerr gave the Bulldogs their third straight win to open the season, propelling Coach Mike Howard to the 500th win of his career in the process. Freshman Ellen Spooner provided the final margin with her goal in the 66th. She picked up a loose ball after Jacklyn Standfast’s 30 yard run into the box. Her shot from the far left side carried over the keeper and into the upper side netting.

I’ll have photos and a story about Coach Howard’s accomplishment on Sunday.

Springfield Catholic – 5
Washington Jays – 0
Junior Anna Delong opened the flood gates in the 18th minute when she came back for a loose ball in the offensive third, turned and went straight to goal. Her shot from outside the box found the side netting on the far side and the Irish had the opening they needed. Shaking off the fatigue of four games in three days, in a Spring practice season that hasn’t allowed much in the way of full field game efforts, the Irish cleared the bench while getting goals from four players. The second goal was scored by freshman Shelby Hatz, from Carsen Baron’s corner kick in stoppage time of the first half. Delong got a second goal in the 49th minute, a hard low shot to the near corner. Baron buried a volley after freshman Emily Ortega sent a hard cross from the left. Emily Kessler finished things with a tap in to the far post after freshman Courtney Devlins fine run into the box.

Hickman Kewpies – 1
Washington Jays – 1
The Jays came back to tie the game today after the Kewpies went ahead on Katie Larue’s second goal this weekend.

Rolla Bulldogs – 1
Springfield Catholic – 0
Jacklyn Standfast
Kaitlin Bramel got the gamewinner, with the assist from Jaclyn Standfast’s header off Ashely Kerr’s corner. It came in the xxth minute and the Bulldogs continued to press throughout the half as the Irish had difficulty getting started in their third game in three days. The second half saw a more even battle as the youthful Irish team warmed up with the clearing skies. Taking advantage of their wing speed, they had several opportunities in the final 10 minutes to earn the tie but the Bulldog defense is experienced and withstood the pressure.
