Lady Pioneer JV falls to Eaglettes
The Lady Pioneer junior varsity soccer team took one on the chin Tuesday as Shelbyville rolled to a 5-0 win.
Shelbyville scored with 4:21 left in the first half from 10 yards out, after Warren County had controlled much of the first period.
In the second half things went downhill for Warren County’s defense as Shelbyville spread the field and worked the ball to the open player. Lady Pioneer goalie April Burkett came up with a big save in the opening minutes of the second half, but Shelbyville’s fast-paced offense started to wear down Warren County.
Shelbyville scored its second goal with 21 minutes left on the clock and again at the 17-minute mark for a 3-0 lead.
Shelbyville’s fourth goal came from long range with 14:21 left in the game and the fifth and final score was at the 12-minute mark. Warren County made several runs, but the Shelbyville defense held its ground for the shutout.
“This team is what I call ‘in-between,'” said coach Alan Brownyard. “They did some good things out there tonight, but we turn around and don’t follow up with another good play. They played and worked hard all game. We try to play pretty and when we do that we’re not as aggressive. It was a disappointing second half.”
