The Eatonville High School girls soccer team had a rollercoaster week, starting with a tough 5-0 loss to the first-place Fife Trojans on Tuesday night. Hosting the top-ranked Trojans, the Cruisers struggled to find their footing as Fife dominated play throughout the match.
However, Eatonville rebounded in commanding fashion on Thursday night, securing a 5-0 win over the Washington Patriots on the road. Mary Van Eaton and Haley Courson each netted two goals to lead the Cruisers, while Lily Lightfoot added the fifth and final goal in the closing minutes. Goalkeepers Tierney Amaral and Savannah McCandless combined to record the shutout.
Next up, the Cruisers face a packed schedule with three consecutive matches this week. They hosted the Foss Falcons on Oct. 21 at 4 p.m. at Eatonville Middle School, followed by a home game against the Clover Park Warriors on Oct. 22 at B.W. Lyon Field. They will wrap up the week on the road against the Franklin Pierce Cardinals.
