Thu 4/19: DHS 2 - Maine South 2 Coach Grady's Report:The Warrior Soccer team rode an emotional roller coaster in Thursday’s Pepsi Showdown game against Maine South in Park Ridge. Right from the start, the Warriors played some of their best soccer of the season, buzzing around the Maine South goal and creating numerous opportunities. The Warriors failed to turn this dominance into goals, however, and were punished when Maine South struck for two goals less than three minutes apart, beginning in the 26th minute. Despite playing quite well for most of the half, the Warriors found themselves down 2-0. The Warriors threw bodies forward in the second half, playing with only three defenders in an all-out effort to get back in the game. In the 63rd minute, the pressure paid off when Emily K was taken down in the area. For the second game in a row, Hannah calmly slotted home a penalty kick, and the Warriors trailed by only one. Just over a minute later, Emily K stripped a defender of the ball and sent her older sister in on a breakaway. Amanda K showed great patience, forcing the keeper to commit before sliding the ball into the far corner to tie the game. Bailey made a number of outstanding saves in the second half to keep the Warriors in it.
