Late goal lifts Pacers past Eagles

0

The Delaware Hayes girls soccer team scored very early and very late en route to a 2-1 OCC win over visiting Big Walnut Tuesday night.

Maddy Green converted a shot from a tough angle before some of the socially-distanced spectators even made their way to their seats, giving the Pacers a 1-0 lead less than two minutes into the action.

BW battled back as Emma Barnett got the equalizer off a feed from Annie Thomas with 18:49 left in the first half … and the game stayed tied at one until the final few minutes.

It was then, with 5:16 left, Mckenzie Hayes netted the game-winner to send the hosts home happy.

K.J. Hudson had four saves for the Pacers while Golden Eagle keeper Olivia Ramsey had three.
