Staples Girls Soccer Romps Over Greenwich In State Tournament Opener, 5-0.
Wreckers girls celebrate big win in CIAC tournament over Greenwich.
After receiving a bye for the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference state tournament opening round, the Wreckers girls faced off against the Cardinals of Greenwich yesterday at home. Said Coach Barry Beattie "Great performance for Staples against a tough Greenwich team"
The first half saw possessions go back and forth continuously with neither team being able to set up for a score. The second half was quite a different story. Said Beattie "They played a good first half but neither team created a whole lot of chances. Early in the second half we saw the best of Natalie Chudowsky. She linked up with her sister Evelyn to cut in and score a top class goal. Once the first went in the flood gates opened."
In fact, it took twelve minutes into the second half for the Wreckers to get a goal and another thirteen minutes for the second with Reilly McGeehan scoring a great volley. After that, the next three scores came in quick succession with the Cardinals being unable to stop the wave of scoring by Staples. Coco Crombie scored the 4th and Annabel Edwards scored the 5th to put the game to bed.
