Sherman lifts Lady Owls to soccer win
 

ST. MARYS - Lindsay Sherman found the back of the net twice as Bradford rolled over St. Marys 4-2 in high school soccer action Thursday.

"She (Sherman) is a driven player and will do anything she can to help the team win," praised BHS coach Tony Doriguzzi.

BHS first score came with 13 minutes left in the first half on a penalty kick from Whitney Cline.

Midway through the first, St Mary's got on the board with a score from Elena Reed.

The Lady Owls answered when Libby Cavagnaro booted a corner kick from Chelsea Rinfrette with six minutes remaining.

"Coach Joe (Doriguzzi) made some tactical suggestions and so we moved some people around a little bit," Doriguzzi proclaimed.

"It paid off because Libby Cavagnaro wasn't even in her new spot for 30 seconds when she scored on a brilliant corner kick from Chelsea Rinfrette. Libby had another nice game tonight."

In the second half, the Lady Dutch tied the game with a goal from Megan Wolfe.

With nine minutes left, Sherman knocked in her first goal on a pass from Dana Carrico.

Sherman sent her last score into the goal with just 23 seconds remaining. Cavagnaro was credited with the assist.

"Lindsay Sherman has been recovering from an injury so it was nice to see her back on track tonight scoring two nice goals," admitted Doriguzzi.

Hope Ruffner was in goal for the Lady Owls and was credited with 12 saves.

"I told the girls that we needed plenty of shots on goal in order to win this match and they came up with 16 shots and four goals," Doriguzzi noted.

Emily Hathorn had 12 saves in goal for the Lady Dutch.

"Midfielders, Steph Lyons and Katie White went all out for us tonight. They were making nice plays on the ball up and down the field. Their intensity helped us generate goal scoring opportunities," Doriguzzi praised.

"Freshman Leah Anderson also did a nice job of coming off the bench for midfield play. She has been a big asset to us this year," Doriguzzi said.

"Hopefully this gives us some momentum going into our final two regular season games."

The Lady Owls are now 9-7-1.

In JV action, Bradford lost 1-0.

Nichole Shine was in goal for BHS and had two saves.
