Saturday night the Lady Warriors traveled to Bethel College where they faced the last game of the season against the Threshers. The Warriors were ready to face the Threshers as they stepped out on the field and senior Kylie Yates put one away at the back post just ten minutes into the half. The Threshers were just as ready for the Warriors. Less than 5 minutes later the Lady Threshers were able to knock a ball in after a blocked corner kick attempt. With 11 minutes left in the half junior Karina Noah was subbed onto the field and showed what she could do when she dribbled 35 yards and put the ball just over the keeper making the game 2-1.
Going into the second half the Warriors knew they would have to keep fighting hard to stay on top. Sophomore Anelly Laguna helped out the Warriors when she was able to take the ball down the middle and drill it into the back of the net giving the Warriors a bigger advantage. That advantage didn’t last for long when the Threshers were given a free kick 30 yards out and put it away making the game 3-2. The back and forth continued when senior Kylie Yates did what she’s done all season by putting in yet another goal (making it her 22nd of the season) with about 15 minutes left in the half. The Warriors were elated to put the lead at 4-2. The Threshers again answered that Sterling goal when another free kick was given to them making the game 4-3 and putting the Bethel College crowd in a frenzy as they cheered their team on. The time on the clock seemed to count down even slower as the last 10 minutes of the game winded down.
The game ended with a 4-3 WIN over the Bethel Threshers giving the Warriors a 3rd place spot in the conference and 4th place seed in the upcoming conference tournament.
This Friday at 4pm the Lady Warriors will again host McPherson College in the first round of the conference tournament.

Heartbreaking Loss
Saturday night the Lady Warriors traveled to Wichita, KS to face off with Friends Falcons as third place was on the line.
The first half came and went as the Lady Warriors worked hard out shooting the Falcons 7-1. The second half started with the Warriors determined to put one in the back of the net. Sterling again outshot Friends 6-3 in the second half trying anything to get one in the net. With less than a minute in the game it looked like all was headed into Golden Goal overtime, until SC gave up a corner. It was the Falcons last opportunity to get a goal and they were able to do just that. As the ball hit the ground right in front of the SC goal a Lady Falcon was able to slip it in the corner making it a 1-0 game with just 34 seconds left on the clock. The Falcons were able to take the game and the third place spot from the Warriors letting them slip to 5th in the conference.

WINNERS!
Yesterday afternoon the Lady Warriors came out ready to attack anything that came their way. With a tie behind them the Warriors were looking for yet another home field win, and they did just that.
The Lady Warriors welcomed senior Yessina Garcia to the field for the first time this season as she played at the top with fellow senior Kylie Yates. Southwestern College stayed packed in to their defensive half of the field giving the Lady Warrior defense the opportunity to help in the offense as well as keep the Moundbuilders to ZERO shots the entire half. The half ended with the Warriors up 1-0.
The second half started with the Warriors looking for more goals, as they continually pressured the Southwestern defense. Although the Moundbuilders were able to put together a few offensive attacks and get a few shots off they were no match for the Warriors. Junior Priscilla Coronado headed one in after teammate Lacey Rhoades hit a beautiful corner ball right into the box. Shortly later Rhoades did it again this time finding junior Morgan Martin on the back post. In the last 10 minutes of the game Yessina Garcia slipped a ball between defenders finding Kylie Yates in the box ready for whatever came her way. Yates put the ball in the corner of the net helping the Warriors rule of the Moundbuilders 4-0.
This Homecoming Saturday the Warriors face off against Kansas Wesleyan at 10am.

Warriors end in 1-1 tie
On Saturday afternoon the Warriors traveled to Hillsboro to face the Tabor Blue Jays on their new home turf. With the sun shinning and wind blowing the game started out with the Warriors going with the wind, helping them keep the ball in Blue Jay territory the majority of the first half. With the half ending at a 0-0 tie the Warriors knew that going against the wind would be more of a challenge to put points on the board.
In the 24th minute junior transfer Karina Noah put a ball just out of reach for the Blue jay keeper putting the Warriors up 1-0. The Blue jays fought back and not two minutes later evened up the score by putting one away on a corner kick from outside defender Megan Beals. Regulation time ended with a 1-1 tie sending the teams into overtime periods.
The Warriors started against the wind this time when Senior Kylie Yates blasted a ball on frame as it hit the inside cross bar, making the Warriors believe the game was over. But the Blue Jay backup goal keeper fell on the ball as it came down, making the referees call a no goal and gave the punt to the Blue Jays. Even though the Lady Warriors outshot the Blue Jays 23-7 the game ended after two full over time periods in a 1-1 tie giving the Lady Warrior a 0-0-1 start to their conference season.
On Wednesday afternoon the Lady Warriors host Southwestern College at 2pm.
