Eagles Guarantee Winning Record with Decisive Victory over Normans!
It seems like after every game, the first comment is that the transitions look the best they've looked all season, and today was no exception. Quick and seamless transitions were key in today's win over Beverly Hills High School, bringing El Segundo's record to 8-6 with one game remaining in the regular season. The Eagles kept their heads up and were able to move the ball from one end to the other in the blink of an eye, burying it in the back of the net before the other team knew what hit them. Whether it started with a caused turnover or a save and clear from the goalie, the girls kept their heads up, made effective cuts for each other, and connected passes beautifully from start to finish. Players contributed all over the field, with eight different players on the board, another golden glove for freshman Abi Layne, and 7 saves for freshman goalie Beth Stephens. Junior goalie Arianna Rendon was able to hold the Normans to one goal in the second half, putting up 9 saves of her own. Stick work and shooting drills at practice also paid off as the Eagles were able to move the goalie and place their shots, ending with a shooting percentage of just over 50%! All the girls' hard work is coming together as they prepare for their final game of the regular season against Culver City this Friday. Come out and support for senior night!
