Here’s a recap from Friday’s game.

 “The Northwood women’s varsity soccer team wrapped up their regular season with a bang Friday night against a visiting Jordan-Matthew’s team.  With Northwood celebrating their Senior Night, the Chargers came out ready to play.  After firing shot after shot on the JM keeper, the Lady Chargers finally got on the board with a beautiful goal from Jamie Palermo about 15 minutes into the game.  Several minutes later, Hannah Lawrence capitalized on a chance to make the score 2-0.  Just minutes later, Hailey Pister was able to give the Lady Chargers a 3-0 lead on a ball she slotted to the back post.  Northwood would take that lead into the half.  The teams went back and forth for the first 20 minutes of the second half with Northwood controlling much of the play.  The Seniors then took the game over with goals from April Gibbs and Silva Stout, giving Northwood a 5-0 lead, which would hold for a final score.

The Northwood Senior class includes April Gibbs, Yancey Luft, Hannah Lawrence, Silva Stout, Katie McGrath and Rebecca Moore.  These ladies have committed four years to the Northwood soccer program and have been extremely passionate and devoted in doing so.  Thank you, ladies!

Northwood finished their regular season with a 13-4-2 record (10-3-2 conference) and a second place in the Carolina 12 Conference.  This earns Northwood a trip back to the state playoff, where they will host Bunn High School Wednesday, May 9th with a 7p.m. kickoff.”
