Ozark Tigers Win First Class 2 District Title In PKs

Posted on by

Ozark Tigers – 3 (PK’s)
Kickapoo Chiefs – 2
The Tigers opened the scoring this evening in the 2nd minute, by freshman Jayme Braun, sending a message to their Northern neighbor about what to expect. The Chiefs were able to tie the score in the 37th minute via a corner kick, with Megan Etter scoring on the set piece service by Erica Freiert.

The Tigers took the lead again in the second half but the Chiefs were able to rally and tie the score yet again, this time in stoppage time, sending the game into overtime. Two overtime periods were scoreless which led to PK’s. The Tigers won 3-0 when they finished their three chances while the Chief’s first three shooters were blanked. UPDATE – OzarkTigerSoccer.com offers a great read on the game!

The Sectional game will feature Ozark against the winner of the Lebanon vs Glendale game which was moved to tomorrow. It will be played Tuesday May 20th at 6:30 pm at Cooper Soccer Complex. Photo courtesy of Mike Gunnels, OzarkTigerSoccer.com

PS – I was planning on attending but didn’t get home from my business meeting at BPS until almost 6pm this evening. I guess I should have anticipated there might be OT but couldn’t justify the 150 mile round trip for what I thought would only be the final third of the game. I’m sorry I missed it ladies.

    Class 2 District 11

#4 Lebanon Yellowjackets – 3
#1 Waynesville Tigers – 2
The Yellowjackets found the same reservoir of energy tonight that took them to the District Final last year when they upset the Glendale Falcons. It was the Tigers that established the early bragging rights, scoring 20 seconds into the game from Lauren Kelly, a margin they took to the locker rooms at halftime. In the words of Coach Gow, who leaves Lebanon for the Tigers job when this season ends, there was no need to raise his voice or even discuss what needed to be done. Each of the ladies knew what was needed and what they as a team were capable of having been here before. Junior Cassie Wood tied the game in the 48th on assists from Ashley Shockley and Chelsea LaFors but Erica Combs regained the lead for Waynesville in the 53rd.

In the 60th minute, Callie Beard scored her first ever Varsity goal when she banged a ball from the midfield line that in combination with the wind somehow found it’s way under the crossbar, giving Lebanon their second tie. Wood got the ultimate game-winner in the 67th on an assist from Brianna Ragains. Both of her goals were scored on headers this evening.

Katie Pritchard had an opportunity to tie the game in the final minutes but was unable to connect, ending the remarkable run the Waynesville Tigers made this year. Undefeated in the Ozark Conference , a second straight Conference title but it will remain for a future team to earn the first Girls District Soccer title.

#2 Glendale Falcons – 2
#3 Rolla Bulldogs – 1
The Falcon’s rebounded from last year’s disappointment to defeat the defending District Champions this evening on a late goal by Emily Cline. Glendale scored first when Jenni Frewin continued her recent scoring streak, assist to Cline. Rolla’s Jaclyn Standfast tied the game in the first half, unassisted, and thats where the score remained at halftime. The second half was a two-way battle as both teams attacked relentlessly until Cline broke through in the final 10 minutes, assisted by Emilee Williams.

Rolla had a breakaway in the final minute of the game that grazed the upright. Senior Rachel Duckworth apparently got just enough of the ball to deflect it and protect the Falcon’s lead.

The District title game will be Thursday at 6:00 pm at Lebanon. The Yellowjackets return to the final for the second straight year, this time they’ll face the Glendale Falcons.

    Class 2 District 12

Ozark Tigers – 3
Parkview Vikings – 0
The Tigers got a goal in the first half to open a lead they would not relinquish. The Vikings finish their season at 11-10 and look to return as many as 8 starters next year.

Kickapoo Chiefs – 5
Nixa Eagles – 1
Kickapoo opened the scoring via a corner kick in the 8th minute. The ball made it across the entire mouth of the goal before it was tapped in by Erica Freiert on the far side. A shot by Chelsea Russell went off the hands of the goalie before falling to x for an easy tap in and Freiert got a second in the 25th after a cross to the far post.

The second half opened with Nixa giving up an own goal off a corner kick as well. The Eagle’s got one back when their new #2 on the career scoring list, senior Stephanie Allen, scored on a PK. It came after Kelsey Bartell was fouled on a courageous challenge with the keeper. Keeper was called for the red card in the 55th. The final goal was scored by Chelsea Russell scored on a breakaway off a 70 yard punt by the Kickapoo keeper in the 64th minute.

Coach Tom Davidson will take his Ozark Tigers to Joplin on Thursday to face off against the Kickapoo Chiefs for the District 12 title. Game time is 6:00 pm.

Glendale Falcons vs Hillcrest HornetsGlendale Falcons – 8
Hillcrest Hornets – 0
The Hornets came to Cooper on Senior night for the Falcons and didn’t make it easy for Glendale in the early going. With both teams coming off of important wins on Monday, it was the Hornets who were more focused initially. Glendale has too many weapons however and once they concentrated on moving the ball into the box, Emily Cline was on the left corner to bury a short range shot. It was 2-0 at half before the Falcons finally wore out the Hornets, who lost their GK late in the first half on a courageous save in the box. Stats for the game are Jeni Frewin (1G/1A), Megan Garrad (1G/1A), Emily Cline (1G), Lindsey Sprouse (1G), Emilee Williams (1G), Katie Brewer (1G), Jamie Bond (1G), Ashleigh Dallas (1G), Mindy Moffe (1A).

Kickapoo Chiefs – 6
West Plains Zizzers – 0
The Chiefs baseball team ended up moving their game to Parkview due to rain, so I don’t know if this one got played. UPDATE – Senior Katy McClain scored on a header off a cross in the 21st minute to give Kickapoo a lead in the first half. Abby Anderson, McKenna Adams, Megan Melugin, Erica Freiert and Kiley Huslig.

Nixa Eagles – 1

Kickapoo Chiefs Beat Rogers Mountaineers in PKs

Posted on by

Updated – I’ve added the Post Game Interview, Paige Blotter. In Windows Media Format.

Kickapoo Lady Chiefs host Rogers (AR) MountaineersSenior Paige Blotter calmly slotted her PK into the top of the net as the fifth shooter to give her team the much needed win this afternoon. The Chiefs went down 0-3 in the first half before getting a pair of goals late in the half to get back to 2-3. Freshman McKenna Adams tied the game (pictured) when she was waiting on the back half of the goal beat her defender to the loose ball that popped out of the goalkeepers hands on Chealsey Russell’s cross. Her tap in gave the Chiefs their first tie of the season. Her energy on the left wing also created the only lead the Chiefs have had this season when she followed teammate z intowon a ball deep in the left corner. Her back pass was then crossed into the box by Erica Freiert. Russell’s intelligent run allowed her to redirect the ball into the net in front of the GK in the six yard box.

The Mounties tied the game in the 70th minute on a wonderful run by their captain, who slipped past two defenders before slotting the ball to the near post late in the game. The Chiefs threatened but were unable to get the winner in regulation while Jessica McCutcheon withstood several significant challenges in the second half.

After winning Friday by netting 3 of 5 PK’s, the Mounties got goals from the 1st, 2nd and 5th shooter, only to see the Chief’s bury 4 of the 5, including Blotter’s final effort. Pictures and a video interview with Paige will follow.

From the NWArkansas paper

The Lady Mounties (10-3 ) jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead after the first 10 minutes but the Lady Chiefs rallied. Megan Dougherty had three goals during regulation and Liza Eppley scored the other in the nonconference loss.
