Lady Titans Take Win From War Eagles 4-3

This time it was the Lady Titans scoring a last minute goal and that late score secured their 3rd victory of the young season. On a warm and sunny Friday afternoon, North Oconee traveled to Gainesville to battle the Lady War Eagles of Chestatee High School. It was a back and forth affair with the War Birds striking first. The Titans soon tied the score with a PK goal by Lilah Turk after Andie Tiemeyer was fouled inside the box. A little later in the match Tiemeyer once again got in range and hooked a nifty shot into the net putting North Oconee up 2-1. Chestatee managed to swoop in for a 2nd goal and the half ended at 2-2. As the second half began, both teams came out with renewed energy and resolve but the North girls broke through first as Lilah Turk refused to be denied and tallied her 2nd goal. Finding themselves once again down a score, the Eagles refused to give up and fly away. Despite some heroic and goal racking defense by Taylor Frew, Chestatee feathered in a rebound to knot the score once again at 3-3. As the final half wore on both teams began to feel the effects of the unusually warm conditions but North Oconee continued to press their attack and with less than 2 minutes remaining earned another corner kick. A low screamer off the foot of Piper Cyterski ricocheted through the goal line scrum, found the inner face of the far post, and trickled in putting the Titans up for good.
