HOLLAND HIGH SCHOOL: 2
The Dux varsity soccer team ended their regular conference season with a big win over Holland, 6-2. While technically a "home" game, the Dux traveled to Holland because of unplayable conditions on their home surface due to the rain. Holland jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead off of a corner kick, less than 6 minutes into the game. However, the Dux would answer by scoring 3 goals before halftime.
Brooklyn Geerlings scored 2 goals and added an assist. Amely Molina, Abby Gruppen, Abby Winn and Rylee Terpstra tallied a goal apiece. Anna Miller led the Dux with 2 assists, while Zoe Grant, Jordyn Klaasen and Winn chipped in assists as well. Grace Caywood and Samarah Arendsen split time between the pipes to secure the win for the Dux.
"Holland can be explosive offensively, and have scored goals on almost every team they have faced this season. To give up an early goal is not necessarily the start we wanted to have, but our kids remained cool, calm and collected and were able to assert themselves everywhere on the pitch. Our defensive line played an intelligent and patient game tonight. Our midfield was able to move the ball around relatively well, and we were really effective on the wings tonight. It's really awesome watching our kids buy in to what we continue working on in practice every day, tonight it really paid off in a big way. Our energy and enthusiasm continue to drive our season, and everyone contributed tonight. Very satisfied with how we managed the game and found the back of the net."
The Dux move to 7-1-1 on the season (6-0-1 in the OK Green). They face Allendale, Unity Christian and East Grand Rapids before returning to conference tournament play in a couple of weeks.
