To wrap up their third Monon Conference game in a row, the Lady Cadets (1-1) hosted the Lady Stars from Western Boone Jr./Sr. High School. The Lady Stars (0-1) are a 2A school in girls soccer and have been on the Cadets schedule dating back to when the Cadets were still a 1A program. The Lady Cadets and Lady Stars soccer game has traditionally been played early in the season and yielded some very competitive games that allowed each team to work on building patterns of play and team chemistry. With tonight’s game now a Monon conference game, Western Boone's second game of the season and the Cadets' third game of the season added some additional pressure for each team to play well. Last season, Lady Cadets and Lady Stars played through the summer heat to a 1-1 tie. The Lady Stars' tipped the balance of the game in their favor by scoring the opening goal of the game in just under 1 minute after Cascade failed to successfully settle a bouncing ball deep in their defensive end. The quick goal should have awakened Cascade. But the strong effort given by the Lady Cadets last week looked a thing of the past tonight. Western Boone covered the field with energy from sideline to sideline and from box to box and their energy was never matched by the Cadets. Cascade never responded with any threatening offensive attacks for the whole first half while Western Boone kept the soccer ball deep in the Cascade defensive end. The Cadets went into halftime trailing 1-0. Despite having a good wind behind them for the second half, the Cadets could still never materialize much of an offensive push. The Cadets did get a couple of attacking runs down the left side and middle of the field but they seemed to stall out once Western Boone recovered enough players back. When Western Boone scored their second goal of the game with about 12:30 remaining in the game, the win for Western Boone was secured. The game ended in a 2-0 victory for the Lady Stars. The second loss in a row for Cascade drops their season record to 1-2 (1-2 Monon Conference). The Lady Stars even their season record at 1-1 (1-1 Conference) before they move on to play Tri-West (Thursday) and North Montgomery (Saturday). The Lady Cadets will return to the turf on Thursday night to play the Lady Bulldogs from Monrovia (1-2). The game will start at 5:30 p.m. Game Summary 1H 2H Final Cascade 0 - 0 0 Western Boone 1 - 1 2
