The Lady Bruins varsity soccer team took to the field after a week off from pre-season tune up games and handled the Lady Lancers from South Umpqua as if they have been playing games everyday.

The Lady Lancers played Brookings-Harbor tough in the first half, however, the game was played in the South Umpqua half of the field. The Lady Bruins controlled the ball with passing and aggressiveness, not allowing the Lady Lancers to put passes together or even control the ball without a Bruin player challenging the possession.

Senior center mid-fielder #17 Anna Serna opening the scoring in the second half with the left footed shot.

The game was scoreless in the first half as the Lady Bruins missed some well set up shots keeping the Lady Lancers in the game at the half.

Six minutes into the second half, Senior center half, Anna Serna #17 gathered up a break away and placed a left footed shot into the corner of the goal from 20 yards out.

The Serna goal opened the gates as the Lady Bruins pressed into the penalty box repeatedly in the second half and the Lady Lancers began to attempt to just get the ball out of the zone. A corner kick from senior midfielder #18 Elena Morosky would be the next score as her kick from the corner confused the Lady Lancer keeper who attempted to punch the ball out instead of possessing it that resulted in the ball finding the corner of the net.
