Lady Chaps Soccer (LCS) Shuts Out Farmersville
Saturday, Feb. 22, 2025 – LCS faced the Lady Farmers of Farmersville in a game that started later than expected due to the boys’ match going to a shootout. The Lady Chaps had a slow offensive start, generating only a handful of half-chances in the first quarter, but steadily ramped up the pressure and took control.
With one minute left in the first half, senior Macy Childers sent a dangerous cross into the box that the Farmers’ goalkeeper mishandled. Freshman Daniella Dominic-Etuk was in the perfect position to capitalize, tapping in the first goal of the game and shifting the momentum heading into halftime.
LCS wasted no time in the second half, scoring four goals in the first 16 minutes. Junior Brynnlee Bohannon showcased her field vision and passing skills, setting up both Dominic-Etuk and Childers for two goals each.
Defensively, the backline was solid, shutting down a fast and athletic Farmersville offense. Junior goalkeeper Lexis Jones was a key factor, making 10 saves and securing her fifth shutout of the season.
LCS will take on a red-hot Gainesville team Tuesday night on the road, with junior varsity kicking off at 5:30 p.m. and varsity at 7:15 p.m. in a match with playoff implications.
Stats:
• Fr. Daniella Dominic-Etuk – 3 goals (hat trick)
