From a FCHS press release
Franklin County girls soccer team started the regular season against one of the most talented teams in this part of the state, Eastern Indiana Athletic Conference foe East Central.
Regional semifinalists a year ago, the Lady Trojans defeated the Lady Wildcats 11-0 Monday night, August 17.
According to Wildcat coach Cindy Adams, the Wildcats pressured and defended hard against the relentless offense. Rookie varsity goal keeper Josie Rolfes racked up 21 saves in her first 80 minutes of the varsity season. The Wildcats’ defensive line was anchored by Junior Claudia Mauntel and senior Laura Edwards.
Any offensive opportunities were a result of good combination play out of the mid-field. Sophomore Kamryn Dozier, Juniors Halee Barker, Kylee Gibson and Jordan Nichols had good possession.
Seniors Ashley Mauntel, Kloe Bolos and Grace Kruthaupt played strong up top but couldn’t capitalize.
EC is 1-0 overall and 1-0 in the EIAC. FC is 0-1 and 0-1, respectively. FC plays host to Rising Sun Thursday, August 20.
