AZ Repbulic

In the paper today (online version) they listed several of the local high schools and their stats. For O'Connor they listed Anna as a key player! They also listed her friend Andrea, unfortunately they got her name wrong. That stinks but very exciting for the girls especially since they are only 10th graders. I cut and pasted the article below.

Sandra Day O'Connor Eagles
Division: Division I, Section I.
Coach: Rick Kelsey.
Years coached: 10.
Last season's finish: Reached the Class 5A Division II tournament.
Returning starters: 4.
Key players: Anna Goebel, So., MF/F; Amanda Ortiz, So., MF.
Key newcomers: Elizabeth Philpot, Sr., MF/F.
Coach's comment: Our schedule is very difficult and we are a very young team. We only have five upperclassmen with just one a consistent starter. I am looking for my team to compete every game and make sure that regardless of the final score, our opponent has had to earn their result.
Tournaments: Phoenix Paradise Valley and O'Connor.

(for those non soccer people I will translate... MF/F (she plays midfield/Forward)

Tournament Update:
The girls won their 3rd game 3-0 with goals by Maeve, Vicky and Anna. They play for 3rd place tomorrow night.
