Steele Canyon High School Women's Soccer

In the first game back from the Christmas break, the Varsity Team still without key players from the line up, lost 2-0 to visiting Division 3 Rival Pt. Loma. With DELCIE THANKACHAN and EMILY RODRIGUEZ watching from the sidelines, the Cougars and Pt. Loma went into halftime tied 0-0. The defensive battle continued late into the second half, until Pt. Loma scored twice on Cougar defensive mistakes. The offense was held scoreless for the 2nd game in a row, and Coach Cleaves, after the game stated, "The girls came out flat, lacked intensity, and really didn't understand the importance of the game. Hopefully the team will step up soon." Not all was lost as JV won convincingly 4-1, in their first game without ALI MENDOZA who was pulled up to Varsity. Next up, Grossmont Thursday!!
