Girls soccer drops two

The Lady Outlaws soc-
cer squad dropped both their
games this past week, a 3-1
loss at home against Sutherlin
on Tuesday, October 10, and
two days later a 2-1 loss at
Sweet Home.
In Tuesday’s game against
Sutherlin, Sisters started
off sluggish and at the half
found themselves down 3-0.
The Bulldogs scored at the
12-minute mark and within
10 minutes had tacked on two
additional goals.
Nine minutes into the sec-
ond half, Brianna Bachmeier
scored Sisters’ lone goal
of the contest. Gracen
Sundstrom played a big ball
over the top of the defense
and Bachmeier used her
speed to beat everyone to
the ball. Brianna scored from
about 12 yards out to the right
side of the goalie.
The Outlaws had a couple
more great opportunities to
score in the final half, but
just couldn’t get it into the
net. One chance came around
the 55-minute mark. Sisters
was awarded a free kick from
approximately 35 yards out.
Coach Jaron Jacobsen told
The Nugget that Sundstrom
struck the ball with a magic
touch that sent the ball toward
the far post. It hit the cross-
bar, and Weber took a follow-
up shot, but it was saved by
the goalie.
In the 64th minute, the
Outlaws were awarded a pen-
alty kick for a foul that Weber
drew in the back. Sadly, the
shot missed, and went over
the goal.
Sisters applied pressure
and dominated possession
in the second half, but just
couldn’t finish their chances.
On Thursday the Outlaws
traveled to Sweet Home
and fell 2-1 in a contest that
Jacobsen and others called a
poorly officiated game.
Jacobsen said, “Sweet
Home players were com-
ing into tackles late, throw-
ing elbows towards the face
and stomach area, and being
overly aggressive most of the
game.”
Jacobsen picked up a yel-
low card 15 minutes into the
contest because of a spe-
cific play, where one of the
Outlaws was elbowed and
launched to the ground, and
no foul was given.

“I’m not a coach to let that
type of play take place during
a game where I am coach-
ing, so I let the official know,
and asked them to watch the
elbows and to call it both
ways,” said Jacobsen. “Even
after that, the game got even
more physical.”

The Huskies scored their
first goal in the 16th minute
of play, and they added a sec-
ond at the 33-minute mark.
At the half, the Outlaws were
down 0-2.
Gracen Sundstrom did
have a great strike off a free
kick, which headed to the

upper-left corner, but the
Husky keeper made a great
save to keep the Outlaws out
of the net.
Sisters dominated play
the second half and played
with good intensity. They
had several corner kicks and
opportunities to score, but
just couldn’t get the ball in
the back of the net, which has
been their story of the season.

the ball from about 25 yards
out and sent it into the upper

Sundstrom had another
free kick with about eight
minutes left in the contest, but
unfortunately it went about a
yard wide of the goal.
