Lady Lions tie Lady Tigers

The girls varsity soccer team tied Bethel on Thursday night with a score of 2-2. At half-time the Lions were down 1-0, however they really stepped up and Sarah Glenn scored with an assist by Kelsey Hensley after only 5 minutes into the second half. Bethel answered back with another goal with only minutes to play in the game. That didn't stop New Richmond from fighting back with a goal with less than a minute in the game by Courtney Grogan. The Lions defense including Cassidy Martin, Jill Flenniken, Cassie Byrd, Kayla Owens, and Madeline Farmer did a tremendous job in holding Bethel to only two goals. The girls prepare for their next contest at home against Eastern on Monday, September 12th at 5pm.
