HARRISON SPLITS SOCCER PAIRING WITH GREEN FOREST

Teams win some and lose some.
That was the case for both Harrison and Green Forest on Friday as they matched talents for a pair of soccer contests at F.S. Garrison Stadium.
The opening match of the day resulted in the Lady Goblins kicking a 6-0 shutout win over the Lady Tigers.
In the final game, the shutout went to Green Forest over the Goblins, 4-0.

Senior Girls
Harrison took over the offense early and cruised to a 6-0 win over their non-conference opponent.
Lady Goblin sophomore Clare Barger, who set a state record with six goals against Shiloh Christian, continues to dominate on the pitch by having a foot in four of Harrison’s six goals. Barger scored the first goal unassisted after a quick dribble and then firing the ball to the back of the net at the 32-minute mark. Just four minutes later Barger received a cross from teammate Olivia Pall and delivered a shot past the goalkeeper to make it a 2-0 Harrison lead.
At the nine-minute mark, Mia Barrett was in the right spot for a deflection off the goalie and put the rebound in the net for the Lady Goblin’s third goal.
Elise Bell then hit the scorebook with a shot from the 10-yard line and then earned an assist with two minutes remaining in the first half when she kicked a long ball to the middle of the box where Barger was ready to punch in her third goal of the game.
Harrison came out of halftime with a 5-0 advantage and added one more goal to complete the shutout. Barger put in the final goal at the 29-minute mark off a crossing pass from Barrett.
Barger’s four goals led the Lady Goblins along with one score apiece from Barrett and Bell.
Pall had two assists in the win and Bell and Barrett collected one each.
