The Lady Lobos split the two soccer matches they played last week, earning a 4-3 overtime win against Northland Prep on Tuesday, followed by a 3-2 loss to Round Valley on Saturday.
Hosting the Lady Spartans on Tuesday, both squads scored twice in the first half, then matched each other again in the second 40 minutes to send the match to overtime. In the extra period, Snowflake scored once, earning the one-goal victory.
Audrey Livingston, Skylee Scott, Rebecca Neff and Brittany Brubaker each scored once in the win. Alyssa Rolow had seven saves and Emily Rolow finished with six.
Thursday’s match at Round Valley didn’t go quite as well. The Lady Elks scored three unanswered first half goals, putting Snowflake in a hole. In the second half the Lady Lobos tried to mount a comeback, scoring twice, but that was as close as they would get.
Brubaker and Neff each scored. Alyssa Rolow had three saves and Emily Rolow had two.
