Senior Sarah Robinson scored a pair of goals and eight different players tallied for EHS, which improved to 4-2 overall (2-0 district).

“It’s tough the first season,” said Lady Cyclones head coach Bill McClay. “But their girls kept playing and the game stayed on a positive note. We were able to work on a few things. We got the ball wide and scored on a couple of set pieces. We got two header goals off corner kicks, which is good.”
