Get Your Game Face for CCS!!!

Monterey travelled to Saratoga on November 8th for their first CCS playoff game since 2002. The Lady Dores played an amazing first half, despite an early Saratoga score. At the half, the score was only 1-0. Monterey forwards Erin Enea and Chelsea Persons were able to move into scoring positions several times in the first half, but the Saratoga defense kept them from scoring.

The second half showcased Saratoga's dominate midfield, scoring in the first 17 seconds of the half. The score was 3-0 when Enea broke out on the left side of the field, crossing in front of the goal for the assist off of Sophmore Elise Reidy's post goal. Saratoga answered back with a goal minutes later bringing the score to 4-1. Again, Enea took off down the field for a 50 yard sprint, dodging Saratoga's mids and defense along the way. Enea found Reidy again at the right post, bringing the score to 4-2 with ten minutes to play. Despite an amazing effort from all the girls, Monterey ended their amazing season with an 8-2 loss. Thanks to all the parents that made the trek to Saratoga! Your dedication, support and encouragement this season has been AWESOME!!
