It only took Maryville 26 seconds to win this game and get their first goal.  The whistle sounded and Chillicothe’s center midfield and center defense did not attack the ball, leaving a one on one situation with the goalkeeper, where she just stayed on the line and let them take a shot.  It only went down hill from there and Maryville continued to pound the net.  It was very evident that the 4 games in 5 days, plus Prom weekend took a heavy toll on legs early as the majority of players were wore out.  With 30 minutes on the books it was 5-0 and evident the lady Hornets had no gas in the tank, the substitutions started and at half most of the starters were on the bench and Cyrsten Lollar had replaced Me. Brick in goal.  The young Lady Hornets did ok against most of the starting Spoofhounds as it was late in the game before they worked all of their players in.  

     I do want to acknowledge Margaret Weed as she played tough in defense alongside Laura Turner who played midfield and defense, gaining valuable minutes and showing good things.  Anna Leutticke made some good runs up top and Lollar gained valuable game time in goal and had played well in defense as well.

     With one days rest, the Lady Hornets will meet a tough Excelsior Springs team on Thursday at 5:00 in Chillicothe.
