A busy schedule might just have been the ticket to the successful week the MHS soccer team had as they faced a new opponent nearly every other day.  The Lady Dragons claimed their first wins of the fall schedule against two challenging district opponents.

Facing Marsh Valley for the third time this season, they struggled to hold the highly competitive team back.  Aubrey Shulz had a busy game keeping the goal as she tallied 30 saves on goal as the Eagles attacked the net.  Emily Coatney and Braylee Price managed to work the ball deep into Marsh Valley territory where they each got shots off but failed to connect for the goal.

Thursday, September 11, the Lady Dragons hosted the 4A Snake River Panthers in their first matchup of the season.  By the numbers, Malad was able to take control of the game, sending across 24 shots to the Panthers 11.  The Lady Dragons punched in two early goals to lead them as they paused for the half 2-0.  The Panthers came back in the second half to score two goals of their own, but the MHS snuck ahead with one final goal to win the game.

Saturday morning, Malad ended the week with another win as the Firth Cougars came to play.  In an equally aggressive and intense game, the Lady Dragons once again took the lead in the opening half, 2-1.  Malad played out the second half to add another 2 goals while holding Firth to just 1.  The team tallied 30 shots on goal while also accumulating 9 saves.

The MHS soccer are scheduled to play in a similar form this upcoming week with games against Aberdeen, American Falls and Teton high schools.
