The Lady Spartans celebrated Senior Night on Tuesday with a 4-0 win over Greenview during our Pink-Out game. Seniors Gracyn Armstrong, Libby Bulach, Alyza Camp, Katie Dick, Allie Freese, Laine Kuhns, and Emmy Lezotte have all been integral parts of our program over the last 4 seasons and have really stepped up their leadership this year. We truly appreciate all of their efforts for the Waynesville community both on and off the field. Against Greenview, junior Sam Erbach led the team in scoring with 2 goals and 2 assists. This put her over the 200 point mark in high school girls soccer as a junior, which is a rare accomplishment! Sophomore Baylee Williams and freshman Chloe Dunford scored the other two goals for the Lady Spartans, and Freese assisted one of Erbach's goals. The win over Greenview was preceded by a hard-fought victory at Alter on Monday night. After trading goals, Waynesville pulled ahead in the second half and didn't look back going on to win 4-2 over the Lady Knights. Juniors Brooke Woody (with 2) and Caroline Stupp (with 1) both scored for the Lady Spartans along with senior Allie Freese. Assists were from Freese, Stupp, and Erbach (with 2).
