U-14 Headers

Marblehead's U-14 Headers opened the 2nd session in style with a decisive victory over Gloucester 4-2 on Sunday the 25th.  Early in the 1st half it was a real battle with both teams making strong attacks and both defensives turning the ball to the opponents end.  It was late in the first half that Marblehead's Kendall B hit a unassisted monster goal.  KB worked the ball from mid field through Gloucester defense and once she found a small opening on the right wing KB launched a perfectly place rocket to the far corner giving Marblehead it's first of the day. Cassie Rodgers was in goalie and notch a shut-out in the first half with some great saves... Marblehead began to dominant this contest with outstanding team play.  Kiley , Meggie , Kendall Butler, Ainsley , Molly Sue , Rachael , Kaitlin and Hannah dazzled the fans with some outstanding ball movement.   Molly Sue , Rachael and Kaitlin in defensive put up a brick wall for our home town team, aided by their mid field and offensive teammates.   The fans were treated to an outstanding display of team soccer.

In the 2nd half.. The Headers found a comfort zone in their team play and heard constant applause from the stands as they passed and moved the ball calmly amongst themselves.   After a series of passes that saw the ball move from goalie to defensive to the forwards... Meggie got a beautiful give and go feed from Kiley and Mego buried it.  Kaitlin and Rachael took the lions share of time on defense in the 2nd half and put on a display to envy.  Hannah was in goal and did a great job moving the ball up field and protecting the goal.  Cassie out from the goal and in a forward position picked up two loose balls left in front of the opponents goal and tapped them home.  Gloucester did not give up and would put two on the board with 2 minutes left.  Final 4-2
