Lake Wales is a tremendous defensive squad. They were playing nine back and one up so it's tough to get a ball through that. It was a good battle. I felt it was going to be a one goal game either way and we were fortunate to get the bounce and put it in. Whoever you play at this stage of the season is going to be good so I expect every game to be close from here on out. -Art Weaver

We didn't match up well with their speed. It seemed like every time they got the ball up front, they ran past us. Our girls were visibly tired on the field. We just couldn't keep up.

We were a little flat. We were a little slow.

We know the defense is the heart of our team. It's like any other sport. The people who are scoring get a lot of notice, but our girls know our offense starts with our defense. Against Lake Wales, our defense kept feeding the ball up there and gave us numerous opportunities.

She is our best defensive player. Carly is very strong and aggressive and could play on a lot of boys teams. Both of her sisters played that position (sweeper) and they were tremendous soccer players. It is something in their genes.

She had a lot of good saves. We've always said that when the time came, she'd be there for us.
