Some pills hard to swallow no matter how much water there is. North Oconee drops rain-soaked decision to North Hall in sudden death PKs.

After a long layoff from game action, the Varsity Girls returned to the pitch Friday night for a match against the Lady Trojans of North Hall. In the wettest conditions yet in what has been a very wet season, the Lady Titans slipped, sloshed, and fought their hearts out against an evenly matched squad from North Hall for 80 minutes only to finish regulation tied 1-1. With the puddles getting deeper by the minute, neither team could muster a score in the 2 overtime periods sending the game to PKs. After the 1st set of 5 PKs ended 2 all (outstanding job by Alyssa Frey in goal), North Hall managed to get the 1st PK in sudden death and thus gained the victory. Our Lady Titans fought hard and long but in the end, the scaled tipped in favor of the Trojans. My game ball goes to Natalie Frey for taking charge in the midfield, running down every ball in sight, and scoring North Oconee's single goal in regulation. The Lady Titans' final game of the season comes Tuesday night at 5:30 against the girls of Franklin County as North Oconee celebrates Senior Night.     GO TITANS!
