Mounts advance to Quarterfinals
- 07 May 2006
The Ephrata Mounts Girls Soccer Team needed overtime to get past a pesky Elco team (9-7-1) on Saturday afternoon. Melissa Speros scored the winning goal on Saturday at 82:30, propelling the Mounts to a Quarterfinal date with Section One runner-up Hempfield (13-3-1).The Mounts started the scoring in the first half 23 minutes into the contest Emily Beamesderfer slid one past Jacklyn Smith (6 saves) to give the Mounts an early 1-0 lead.
That lead looked like it might be enough to win until Ashley Gardener scored at the 75 minute mark, knotting the game at 1-1, a score that would hold until the end of regulation.
Once in overtime, Speros wasted little time scoring the final goal of the game. Becca Cetkowski turned away 10 Elco shots enroute to the victory.
The Mounts (12-4-1) play Hempfield on Tuesday at 7:30 at Conestoga Valley . Their game follows the 5:30 game of Lancaster Catholic (16-2) and Warwick (8-6-1).
Good Luck Mounts!
