The Eastview Girls' Cross Country team came away with a 4th place team finish in a very strong Lake Conference meet. The girls put together some great races. All of the varsity athletes ran faster times than last year. The two new freshmen (Burkstrand and Schreier) also ran one of their best races this season. McKenzie battled the entire race with Opitz and Berndt, but came out 3rd. Ferguson led the second group of athletes throughout the race and placed 4th overall.

Congratulations to the 9A Football team on a successful season with a final record of 6-2.

 

The Lightning Varsity Girls Soccer team took until the final shooter in the shootout to win over a quality Park team in the finals of Section 3 to advance to the State Tournament.  Playing in the rain on a muddy field both teams battled for 100 minutes with neither team able to get the go ahead goal.  Outstanding play on both ends of the field for both teams under trying circumstances.  Keeper Sam Mehr and the defense of Taylor Allen, Sammy Zieminski, Sara Ake, Christine Fries, and Kelsey North did a great job of keeping the ball out of our net and earned the teams third shutout in the section and 16th for the season.  Senior Cat Parkhill, an under 17 national goalkeeper, stepped into the net for the shootout and stopped 4 Park shots.  Marissa Price scored her penalty kick setting up senior captain Taylor Allen who knocked in the winning shot.  Another great team effort by the Lightning who return to the State Tourney for the second time in our 11 year history and will play Thursday at 5:30 at Park Cottage Grove.  Be there - we appreciate your support!
