Freshman Lily Loftus put the Wildcats on the board early in the game with a goal from the left post.  Lily's goal was assisted by senior Lauren Holmes, who played scrappy and aggressively in the circle.  With strong leadership in the back field, Senior Captain Kate Norton smartly controlled and shut-down the breakaways.  Norton's leadership, coupled with Senior Lily McGee-Harris' quick jabs and Sophomore Avery Butler's laser-fast speed, created a wall against Cheyenne's long drives up the field.  Freshman goalie Cory Sapienza also made some pivotal saves to keep the Wildcats in the game, allowing only one goal over the two halves.  Captain Brittany Taylor lead the transition game to maintain possession and get the ball up the field with the help of midfielders: Senior Maddie Moore's stellar stick skills, Senior April Morland's constant hustle, and Sophomore Reagan Rychecky's quick on and off ball movements.  Senior Lauren Holmes's constant communication, coupled with Junior forward Niki Gutesha's strong drives and Freshman forward Lily Loftus' speed, allowed the offense to keep the ball on their side of the field for most of the game.  The strong movement in the offensive circle drew numerous corners - which the Wildcats eventually capitalized on.  On an offensive corner, Sophomore Reagan Rychecky inserted the ball to Senior Captain Brittany Taylor, who dribbled around the defenders and put the ball in the back of the net.  The rice crispy award (MVP) was given to Freshman Lily Loftus for her first goal with the Wildcats and her ability to adjust to a new position on the forward line.  Another rice crispy award was given to the team as a whole for uniting as one and supporting each other - both on the field and on the sidelines.
