The Bensalem Owls held the 15th ranked PIAA team to 0-0 at halftime. It was not until 11:39 left in the third quarter that Mia Brooks was able to open up the scoring for Neshaminy. Brooks got her second with just 3:51 left in the game.
We played one of our best games of the year today against the Patriot Division champs. It was our seniors last game of their four year career and they left it all out there. Senior forwards Ava Hood and Abby Kazimer put pressure on the Neshaminy defense all game. Keana Rodriguez and Peyton DeCarlo, both senior midfielders, helped to work the ball up from the outside. And Univest Featured Athlete of the Week Lucciana Krecko and Makayla Duncan, both seniors, held the back line all day against the very talented Skins offense. Chloe Masciantonio, injured in the senior night game, even joined her senior teammates so they could walk off the field together.
I can't think of a single player that didn't play well today. Sophomores Kylie Blank, Paige Dando, and Reese Sayers put constant pressure on the vaulted defense of Neshaminy. Juniors Mollie Reilly, who left the game early with a possible concussion, Anjali Guda, and Tierney Sayers continued their spectacular play from all season, fighting through a very tough Neshaminy team. Junior defenders Lexi Hartman and Reagan Colgan played well today and gave us a taste of what we'll have on our back line next year. Freshman Leah Vorgity continued to show us why we brought her up as the only freshman this year. Her energy and fight are contagious and I can't wait to see what she will bring us over the next three years. Veronica Lennon and sophomore Abby Cheung played their hearts out today and will continue to move this program to heights that we haven't been to in a long time. Goalkeeper Hailey Fricke did an another amazing job stopping the powerful Neshaminy offense. She cleaned up a lot of loose balls in front of her cage today and cleared them out of danger.
Our season is done today, we look back and try to decifer what we did right and what we can correct going into next season. I'm so proud of this team today and all season in the way they fought for what we were working for. We achieved a lot of what we were looking for and came up short a couple times when we felt we could have done more. That's why I love sport, and that's why I love this team. Can't wait to see what the offseason and summer bring.
