Utes First Scrimmage A Success

Notes from Thursday evening's scrimmage....

The game was played in two 30-minute halves...
Teams played 10 - a - side as Roxy Tebbs (hip flexor) and Jen Christoffers (sprained MCL) sat out with injuries.

Yellow Team (1st half)
Emalee Rogers, Nicole Cardon, Lauren Porter, Lauren Dudley, Morgan Skeen, Katie Martinez, Katie Brower, Mallory Mitamura, Chelsea Forbes, Anne Shallenberger

White Team (1st half)
Amy Edman, Addie Hair, Christine Quinn, Alyssa Toomey, Kellie Woodfield, Danielle Sample, Katy Reineke, Amanda Sanchez, Kelly Isleib, Lauren Hair

The white team had a ton of possession and pressure on goal...but it was the yellow team that got on board first on a counter attack as Chelsea Forbes sent a ball behind the defense and Mallory Mitamura put it away. The white team tied it up as Christine Quinn nodded home a corner kick with a close-range header.


Christine Quinn's header from a corner kick highlighted the first half of tonight's scrimmage.















Yellow Team (2nd half)
Hannah Turpen, Nicole Cardon, Lauren Porter, Morgan Skeen, Addie Hair, Katie Martinez, Amanda Sanchez, Kellie Woodfield, Kelly Isleib, Anne Shallenberger


White Team (2nd half)
Shay Kennedy, Alyssa Toomey, Lauren Dudley, Christine Quinn, Mallory Mitamura, Danielle Sample, Katy Reineke, Chelsea Forbes, Lauren Hair

The second period of action featured two goals by the white team....Danielle Sample floated in a long shot over the head of goal keeper Hannah Turpen. And Lauren Hair knifed through a double-team in the box and placed a shot beautifully into the far corner...
