First Season Win!

Last night, Wednesday, April 2, the Tunstall Ladies tore Dan River to pieces! The game started wonderfully for the Ladies of Troy as their whole team was clicking together well and running on ALL cylinders. The Trojans made their mark in the first half and kept it through out the rest of the match. Tunstall's birthday girl yesterday, Lauren "Daffy", scored the first Trojan goal of the evening with an excellent gliding ball struck perfectly from the right side and across into the left side of the Wildcat's net. The next notch on the scoreboard for Tunstall came from one of the team's forwards, Maggie, as she ran half way down the field into Dan River's territory and ended the race with a slicing goal over the Wildcat keeper. As play continued to advance during the first half, Tunstall's defense was playing well with the Trojan Lady in goal, Lauren, saving everything in her path. The last goal scored by the girls in red was an excellent team effort of moving the ball through the field, from the back in defense to the midfield and up to Tunstall's other forward, LP, to send a blistering kick in for the third and final goal of the afternoon.

Tunstall was fired up for this match and continued to play its own game throughout the second 40 minutes, with many runs up the pitch and several corner kicks. The overall match was a great up lifter for Trojan spirits! The team is up for anything and finally realizing their amazing amount of potential.

GREAT GAME TUNSTALL!!

The boys' squad also had a win against Dan River, with a score of 8-0!
