The T-Birds picked up their second win of the year Monday, defeating Hayden at the Bettis Family Sports Complex, 3-2.
After an 0-3-1 start to the season, they notched their first victory at Piper last Thursday. The Shawnee Heights girls are in the middle of a stretch of six games in two weeks that they hope could turn their season around.
“Our last win (at Piper) definitely turned it around for us,” said Shawnee Heights senior Lailah Benz, who scored the game’s first goal just 42 seconds into the contest. “We came in knowing that we were going to win instead of having doubt.”

The T-Birds added to their 1-0 lead in the middle of the first period on a score by Brylee Garner off a corner kick.

But Hayden demonstrated it wasn’t going away when the Wildcats got on the board with 49 seconds remaining in the first half off a goal by Carsyn Broxterman.
Shawnee Heights picked up an insurance goal by Izzy Van Fleet at the 20:54 mark of the second period. Moments later, that goal proved to be the game winner as Hayden responded with a strike by Avery Becker at 20:20.
