With Warrior Fest games, food, and mingling behind them the Lady Warriors went after the Oklahoma Christian Eagles looking for their first home game win. The Warriors started off in a different line up with a more defensive mindset. But that didn’t stop the Eagle offense as they exposed the holes and took advantage of the new system the Warriors started with. The Eagles were able to put in a goal early in the first half but the Warriors didn’t back down. They held strong to their defense and kept the Eagles at 1 until halftime.
During halftime defensive issues were taken care of and the Warriors went back to their original 4-4-2 line up that everyone was more comfortable with.
With the line up back to normal the Warriors were all over the Eagles putting passes together and getting opportunities up front that they originally didn’t have in the first half. Finally a pass from Anely Laguna sent Kylie Yates through the Eagle defensive, beating the keeper and putting one away to get the Warriors on the board. With a point on the board the Lady Warriors kept up the intensity and fought hard giving Kylie Yates another the opportunity to once again beat the Eagle defense and drill one in the back of the net putting the Warriors on top 2-1. Despite many opportunities from the Eagle offensive they were unable to chalk up anymore goals giving the Lady Warriors their first home game win of the season.
