The Crookston Pirate Girls Soccer team looks to overcome a tough challenge as they play host to the #7 ranked East Grand Forks Green Wave at KROX Radio Stadium. Kickoff is slated for 4:00 PM on KROX TV.
FIRST HALF –
East Grand Forks throughout the entirety of the half maintained constant possession of the ball, but their best success came early. In the seventh minute, Jorja Perkerewicz got a great pass and beat Kambree Wangen top shelf, and the Green Wave took an early 1-0 lead. EGF continued to get a plethora of opportunities, including a whopping seven corner kicks in the first 25 minutes of the half, but the Pirates continued their excellence against set pieces, allowing goals on none of them. The best opportunity for the Pirates came with just over ten minutes remaining, as Brooklyn Waldal got Crookston’s only clean look at the net in the half, but the ball sailed over the crossbar. For the rest of the half, the defense and goalkeeping stood firm, holding EGF to a 1-0 lead at halftime.
