Jefferson City Jays Open Defense Of District 10 Title

Posted on by

Jefferson City Jays Win District Match Against Camdenton Lakers

Jeff City Jays – 1
Camdenton Lakers – 0
The defending District champions opened their newly remodeled soccer facility Tuesday with a strong message, emphasized by their attacking midfielder Kara Steiner in the video below, that they are ready to return to the winners circle. They were led this evening by junior Kara Steiner who scored the lone goal in the 67th minute, finally getting past sophomore goal keeper Sandra Shore with a cheeky little chip from just outside the 6 yard box to the far post. Up to that point, Shore had kept the Lakers close despite being out-shot 6-0 in the first half and 8-1 at the end.

The Jays offense begins with Steiner as she roams between forward and attacking midfielder depending on circumstances. The best opportunities were created when junior Molly Cowley or senior Destiny Galbreath were making runs into the corners, creating space for their teammates and sending quality crosses into the box. Galbreath came closest in the 1st half when Cowley’s cross was brought down at the far post by Jenna Foster and Galbreath smacked a quick shot that Shore stopped at point blank range (pictured above).

The Lakers rely on junior LaTea LaRue who is very strong and tireless, working both ends of the pitch this evening. Assisted by Hayley Baker and Chelsey VanHook in the middle, the Lakers have a strong midfield that will allow them to challenge in District 10. The challenge against the Jays was penetrating a strong defense, featuring a pair of smart and fast central defenders in Katie Evans and Abbey Campbell. With speedy outside backs such as Emily Downing (SBU-bound) and Kelsey Coffman, teams will not score too many counter-attack goals. Stephanie Kirvan will get her share of goals this season but I’d recommend teams spend extra time on their set pieces prior to a game against the Jay’s this season.

The Jays are defending District 10 Champions, defeating Sedalia Smith-Cotton last year. This was their first home game, and first District game, of the season after going 0-2-1 at the SportPort Invitational in St Louis last week.
