It’s a classic tale. The unstoppable force meets the immovable object. Or in this case, the all-state goalkeeper.
After scoring 53 goals in an 8-0-1 start, Battery Creek’s girls soccer team couldn’t get one past Georgia Southern signee Quinn Wilson, who posted a pair of clean sheets for Beaufort High in 7-0 and 4-0 wins over the rival Dolphins.
Selena Duncan scored five goals, and Johanna Laney and Reese Meyers each added one in Tuesday’s matchup at Battery Creek, and Beaufort’s back line limited the Dolphins’ opportunities to sneak one past their all-star keeper.
Duncan put on another show Friday at home, scoring all four goals for the Eagles, while Payton Mullen was instrumental in shutting down Battery Creek’s attack and Wilson did her job in goal.
The Eagles (3-4, 2-2) face a non-region test at Parkview (Ga.) on Thursday before resuming region play at home against Hanahan on April 18. The Dolphins (8-2-1, 0-2) were scheduled to play the Hawks twice this week with a non-region trip to Jenkins on Wednesday.
Beaufort’s boys were nearly as dominant in sweeping the Dolphins, posting a clean sheet in a 5-0 win Tuesday at home and blasting Battery Creek 9-2 on the road Friday. Beck Schwerin scored four goals, Grant Schwerin and Evan Lippy added two apiece, and Bryce DeFillipis scored a goal and assisted on three more.
Beaufort (4-2, 3-1) is off until hosting North Charleston on Tuesday. Battery Creek (6-3, 2-2) plays a home-and-home series with region rival Hanahan this week, hosting the Hawks on Friday.
