When the C team girls’ soccer game on April 8 got postponed until Wednesday, the team was upset — until the players got the word that they would get the chance to play on the turf, which is usually reserved for varsity games.

The excitement continued throughout the game for Bishop Carroll, which beat East 9-0.
The game started off slow, with neither team scoring in the first ten minutes of the first half. Then around the 10-minute mark, Emily Demel ran down the field with the ball, passed the ball to Karen Valenciana, and Karen passed it right back. Demel took a couple dribbles and shot the ball into the net, scoring the team first goal. This got the team going. Soon after the Eagles started scoring continually.

“I knew someone needed to get the team going, so I stepped up and went after it,” Demel said.
The team kept going in the second half, scoring six more goals. Meagan Lawrence and Lauren Cruzeiro each had two goals.

“I had a blast playing, especially on the turf,” Riley Schmidt said. “It was great to go out there with nothing to lose and just have fun playing.”
The team now has a 4-0 record and will take on Northwest next Wednesday.
