Battle of Unbeaten Teams Go Toe-to-Toe

The JV1 girls soccer team handed Thayer their first loss of the season in a battle of two unbeaten teams. It was all it was hyped up to be, with action up and down the field. Both teams had great chances, but Abby Duffield put the game away in the second half with a banger from 20 yards out for the game winner. Everyone played a great game with tough physical play being contributed by the entire team. Gauri Bhakta, Sophie Lange-Geise and Mila Rowe stood out as solid forces in the back middle of the field. Veronica Lewis continues to shine in goal recording 12 saves in earning her 7th shutout of the season, her 5th in a row. The girls play another undefeated team in Deerfield at home on Saturday.
