CV-S soccer teams unbeaten


Staff Report

Staff Report

The Cherry Valley-Springfield boys and girls soccer teams are both undefeated in the early season, with the boys accumulating a 4-0 mark and the girls improving to 3-0 with a rare win at Schenevus on Tuesday.

CV-S girls coach Amy Garretson said eight different girls have scored in her team's first three wins. On Tuesday, Courtney VanBrink opened the scoring with an unassisted goal less than two minutes in, and Brittany Mabie's second half goal gave CV-S some breathing room. Schenevus entered the game 3-0.

"Schenevus is always a tough place to play and I don't think we've had much success there over the years,' Garretson said. "I think it's a real confidence-booster for us.'

The Lady Patriots will host their annual Booster Club Tournament this Friday, hosting Sharon Springs in a first round game at 8 p.m.

On Tuesday, they will travel to Milford for a Tri-Valley East showdown with the three-time defending Tri-Valley champions, who won their opener Tuesday, 9-0, over Laurens.

"Laurens is not a team you want to take lightly, and we played super soccer,' Milford head coach Lorin Campbell said. "We had a chance to move a lot of girls around, and even play some eighth graders.'

Milford will play in the National Soccer Hall of Fame Cup on Saturday at 9:30 a.m., when they will meet Hamilton. On Sunday at 1:30 p.m. they will play New Lebanon. The tournament will be run a points system this year.
