SPORTS THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2015 7A GIRLS SOCCER It’s in the Cards for Corbett, 4-0 By GARY HENLEY The Daily Astorian WARRENTON — Asto- ria battled hard and kept the score close for a half, before Corbett tacked on three sec- ond half goals in a 4-0 win Tuesday, in a nonleague girls soccer game at Volunteer Field. Astoria drops to 0-2 over- all, while the Cardinals im- prove to 2-0, following a 7-0 win last week over Douglas. “I told our girls at half- time, and at the end of the game that our team playing on the field today was a to- tally different team than last year,” said Astoria coach Sara von Colditz. “They found each other’s feet, played away from pressure and really wanted this game. Our touch on the ball has im- proved, our passing is miles beyond last year and the team is working as a more cohesive unit.” Still, the Cards scored their first goal in the 23rd minute of the first half. Mo- ments after a corner kick from Carli Berghoff, Chris- tina Krieger gathered in the loose ball and scored from close range at the right post. Corbett controlled pos- session for most of the first half, but the Fishermen de- fense and goalkeeper Lexis Law managed to keep the Cardinals out of the net. Corbett, however, stepped up its offense in the second half of play. Shot attempts by Mal- ly McCowen and Krieger sailed over the cross bar, and additional shots by Rhiley Fritz and Tessa McAllister were wide of the mark be- fore Cloey Shostak banged a shot off the cross bar into the goal for a 2-0 lead in the 60th minute. Krieger scored her second goal four minutes later on a penalty kick, and McCowen wrapped up the scoring in the 77th minute, picking up a close-range goal off an as- sist from Krieger. Krieger “had a great calm touch on the ball, and they had several fast forwards,” von Colditz said. “Claire Albright helped to round out our defense, and was the rock we needed on the back line.” She added, “Jenna Ru- dolph and Megan Bergeron seemed to find each other seamlessly on the field. As an attempt to shake things up, I put Hailey Ranta at forward, and she loved it. Victoria Kee, Daniela Gar- cia, Shrida Sharma and Jas- min Mabry all showed a lot of fight to get the ball. It is what I like to see out of my forwards. “If the girls can contin- ue to keep working together and passing the ball rather than kick and chase, then we will only improve.” Boys Soccer OES 5, Astoria 0 PORTLAND — Oregon Episcopal defeated Asto- ria 5-0 in a nonleague boys soccer game Tuesday on the Aardvarks’ home field.
