SPORT SCORES

Unfortunately the Eastview Lightning Varsity Girls Soccer season ended last Thursday with a 1-0 overtime loss to Armstrong in the State Quarterfinals. Depsite starting slow the Eastview girls really turned up the pressure in the second half. The Lightning’s overall effort, determination and dominate play carried over into the first and second overtimes where it looked as if Eastview’s pressure would eventually get a goal. However with 1:42 remaining in the second half, Armstrong’s Nichole Dooher shot a ball that just made it inside of the far post, ending the game in the second overtime. Anyone in attendance at the game could visually witness the passion and effort with which Eastview played. The Eastview Girls Soccer team ended their season with a record of 17-2-3.  Thanks to all the great fans for their support throughout the season.  The team had a great regular season and a great run in the tournament.  Go Lightning!
