Avery Wright and the Eagle defense earned yet another shut out.
Last week, the Lady Eagles beat Lampasas in their second meeting of the District 18-4A loop. The Lady Eagles beat Lampasas 3-0 in January. This was the same score that Salado beat the Lady Badgers last week.
Salado controlled most of the possession in the first half but just couldn’t put the ball in the net. That changed in the 22nd minute when Haley Piatak received a pass from Savvy Oyler and cranked a shot from distance just outside the box that found the back of the net to give Salado the 1-0 lead. That is how the half would end with Salado up 1-0.
The second half was pretty much the same as the first half with Salado controlling the majority of possession and having multiple opportunities to score but just not being able to finish the deal.
That lasted until the 67th minute with Haley Piatak scoring her second goal of the night in very similar fashion as her first goal with a shot from distance giving Salado a 2-0 lead.
The final goal of the night was scored by Allison Carnahan coming off an assist from Payton Cunningham.
Avery Wright recorded the shutout.
