The Allen women’s soccer team scored early in their 2-0 win over Central at home Wednesday.
The Lady Red Devils (9-3; 4-3 KJCCC) struck for two goals in the opening half and held the Central Raiders scoreless throughout the contest.
“It’s a good shutout, a good win. It was nice to dominate,” said Allen head coach Jeremy McGinnis. “There were four more goals we could have scored because we work on passing around the net every day. We knew we could get behind their back line and get to the goalkeeper.”
Lizeth Ayala drove to the goal unassisted for the Lady Red Devils’ (9-3; 4-3 KJCCC) first goal of the match.
Hannah Vieria delivered the second goal off an assist from Audrey Smith for the 2-0 lead.
“The effort was good enough to beat a lot of teams but it’s not good enough to beat Johnson and Neosho,” said McGinnis. “We’re at the time in the year where we should have everything figured out.”
The Lady Red Devils had 12 shots on goal and 17 shots total. Smith led Allen with a team-high four shots on goal, Ayala had three and Emma Hicklin had two.
Allen also had five corner kick opportunities in each half.
