St Henry 3 Dixie Heights 2 (shootout)

[Oldtimebaseball84]

OTB84 doesn't spend much time at the girls' games so he isn't familiar with players names/numbers. I am not incuding them as to not make a mistake.....feel free to fill in the blanks....

 

Very exciting game to watch. St H scored early on a left footed cross that was guided in. Dixie put in the next two , one on a break away and I can't remember the other scenario...sorry....St Henry tied it up I believe on a cross that was headed and saved by the Dixie keeper but unfortunately for her to a St Henry player that sent it to the corner.

 

Both keepers player extremely well..........and they sure were needed because to EXTRA TIME it went....

 

Two 5 minute halfs in OT, but no goals........and to PK's it went.....

 

First five.....all very good shots (two off the bar) and a great save by the St H keep.......meant sudden death PK's

 

First sudden death PK.....St Henry sends it in side netting right side.....

To match it....Dixie player hits crossbar.......unfortunate

 

Tears and smiles .......but I hope both teams realize that in the long run, this experience will help them both down the "road to state."

Thanks for the write up, OTBB.

My son was there and told me about it. I could not find an official score online late last night to post it. I honestly was not sure how they officially tally goals for the final score in a shootout.

Thought games ended in a tie in regular season?
