Soccer secures solid win against Oroville

The Lady Raiders soccer team won 10-3 at home in Grand Coulee against Oroville on Oct. 4.

Eighth-grader Phenyx Marchand scored her first goal as an LR soccer player during the game, aided in the victory by Sawyer Steffens, co-captain of the team, who scored three goals in the game, co-captain Nautika Brown, who kicked two in, and Leighani Marconi and Taylor Tomas who scored two each for Lake Roosevelt.

The ladies were scheduled to host Bridgeport yesterday, results of which will be reported next week.

Adding to LR's impressive victory is the fact that LR had only 10 players to Oroville's 11. 

"The girls are playing real well and they are gelling this year in a fantastic way," Head Coach Micah Esmond said.

"We are a young team showing great growth," Assistant Coach Solveig Chaffee added.

A road game with Liberty Bell is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Oct. 13, then a home game is scheduled for Oct. 18 with Okanogan at 4:30 p.m.
