The stage was set with the same principal players as last spring’s act, but the Holy Trinity girls soccer team was determined to write a new ending for the encore.
Izzy Harter converted a pair of headers off perfectly-placed corner kicks to the far post, and goalkeeper Abby Schaub and the Mighty Lions’ back line made the margin stand for a 2-0 win and a SCISA 2A/1A title to cap a perfect 12-0 season for Holy Trinity, which lost to the Eagles in last year’s championship game.
“This is our team. This is our school,” said captain Laney Sheehan. “To have an undefeated season after seasons of loss is just insane.”
Harter put the Mighty Lions on the board in the first half and provided the dagger with just over 11 minutes remaining in regulation, both the result of beautiful corner kicks sent in by Harper Squires.
“I mean, the corner kicks? Perfect,” Harter said. “Amazing. I just saw it coming, and I was praying it would go in, and it did.”
