The Chillicothe Lady Hornets Soccer team notched its first win of the season with a 1-0 decision over the Cameron Lady Dragons Friday afternoon at the Excelsior Springs tournament. The Hornets came out strong early and winger Laura Turner finished a nice offensive build up with a low shot to the right corner on an assist from Jordan Gardner with five minutes gone in the half. The rest of the half was a stalemate as the wet playing conditions made ball control difficult for both teams. After halftime, a renewed emphasis on good touches and spreading the field led to several scoring opportunities for Chillicothe. Forwards Lacey Nibarger and Kylie Barton both put six shots on goal but unfortunately neither player could find the back of net. Sophomore midfielders Leslee Moore and Brooke Thomas controlled much of the play in the middle which allowed Chillicothe to transition smoothly into its offense. The defensive back line consisting of Anna Luetticke, Hope Peters, Echo Followwill and Carly Anderson kept the Cameron forwards at bay for most of the game, only allowing four shots which were easily cleaned up by keeper Cyrsten Lollar, who collected her second career shutout. The Lady Hornets’ next game will be in the consolation championship Saturday morning at 9:00 against Savannah.
