COUGARS WIN! Beat crosstown rival Helix in Dramatic CIF Quarterfinals!! Next Up Mt. Carmel!

Posted by Charlie Cleaves on Feb 26 2010 at 04:00PM PST

In the most dramatic of all possible outcomes Senior PAIGE NEVILLE scored in the 78th minute to clinch an emotional back and forth game vs. Grossmont Hills Rival Helix 3-2. After Helix scored first, Freshman KIANA QUARLES answered back with a header off of Paige's cross to make it 1-1 going into halftime. In the second half, the Cougars continued to dominate play, and their efforts paid off in the 64th minute when Junior BRITTNEY BEAM flipped throwed a ball deep into the box, and found Junior MEGAN MCDERMAND, who calmly beat two Helix defenders and the keeper to make it 2-1. The Highlanders would not give up, and with five minutes left(75th minute), Helix tied the score on a bullet from 35 yards out, that beat Senior DANICA ANCELL's valiant diving attempt.  Having seen their lead evaporate and CIF hopes fading, emotions were high and tears began to flow on the field, but the the Cougars quickly regrouped and minutes later, Paige hit the game winner!!  Thank you to all who came out in support of the team tonight, your presence was felt! Next up Mt. Carmel Tuesday time TBA by CIF.
