Zoey White grabbed the number two score for Tri-Valley with a kick-in from a corner kick to set the score to 2 – 0.
The big score of the game to put the final touch on it was a 17-yard free kick from the sideline by Savannah Rexroad with only three minutes left to play, sealing the shutout with the 3 – 0 victory.
Back at home against nearby Coshocton Lady Redskins, the Scotties were on top of their game again taking the lead in the first half of the game was Gabbi Matz.
Zoey White found the net after the intermission to pump the lead up to 2 – 0 against the Redskins. Nevaeh Peffers took a shot that zipped passed the goalie to make it 3 – 0 Tri-Valley.
