HOW IT HAPPENED:
The first period of this game was very back and forth as Coker and Wingate traded shot for shot. Wingate was the first to draw blood. Emilia Waldrop ended a Coker attack with a good shot that forced the Bulldogs' goalkeeper to make a save. Following the save, Wingate had a quick counterattack that ended in a goal to give the home team the lead. After the goal, neither team was backing down as they kept trading shot for shot, with both teams struggling to find the target early in this game. In the 10th minute of this period, the Bulldogs started to build pressure on the Cobra defense after a shot wide and a SOG saved by Zahira Ferreyra. The Bulldogs were finally able to best the Coker defense and double their lead for that attack. At the end of the 1st period of the score was 2-0 in favor of the host.
The second period saw Wingate building up immense pressure on the Coker backline. The Bulldogs outshot Coker 8-0. The Coker defense was immaculate, however, as they held the Bulldogs scoreless in the period. Zahira Ferrerya was a brick wall in the cage as she saved every shot the bulldogs put on goal.
The third period started strong for the Cobras as they had an early attempt on goal from Skylar Ponik that forced a save from the Wingate keeper. At the end of the period, the score of this game was 6-0.
The fourth period started much of the same for the Cobras, as Aleena Januchowski had the first offensive play. Januchowski's shot was just wide of the goal. Once again, however, Zahira Ferreyra had another stellar period as she registered 4 saves, allowing no goals in the 4th period.
WHAT'S NEXT:
The Cobras will be taking on Converse University on Sunday, the 7th, at home.
