WINGATE — Bald Eagle Area’s Savanna Albright scored four goals, including two of the first three goals, and assisted on another as the Lady Eagles rolled to a 12-0 win over Penns Valley on Sept. 15 at Alumni Stadium.
The Lady Eagles (4-2-1) also earned a 1-0 win over Huntingdon on Sept. 17 at home and a 5-1 victory over Moshannon Valley on Sept. 19 at home.
After Raegan Correll scored the first goal against the Lady Rams (0-4) off of an assist from Addison Tice at 5:48, Albright scored her first goal less than a minute later off of a feed from Emma Collins. Albright took a pass from Abby Hacker and scored again 24 seconds later.
Nola Briscoe and Hacker scored two goals. Tice, Natalie Michaels, McKenzie Harbold and Elena Wagner also scored goals. BEA outshot PV, 25-1. BEA goalkeeper Cami Walker only had to make one save.
“What a great offensive showing tonight,” BEA coach Jared Moore said. “Savanna Albright was outstanding, scoring four goals and an assist. Nola Briscoe was all over the place creating chances with two assists and adding a goal as well. I liked how we pressed and moved the ball tonight. We created a ton of scoring opportunities and the girls cashed in on a lot of them.”
Briscoe scored the only goal of the game against Huntingdon at 7:17 on a free kick from 35 yards out. Walker made six saves, while Huntingdon’s Avery Phillips stopped five shots.
“Cami Walker made a really clutch double save on a corner, punching the first ball away and then making a full extension diving save on the follow-up shot,” Moore said. “This was a good character-building game. To know that you can win a tight game does a lot for a team. I am very proud of them.”
BEA’s Maddy Jones scored the first goal against Mo Valley 5:55 into the game off an assist from Hacker. Forty seconds later, Mo Valley’s Brylee London scored.
The score remained 1-1 until Collins got a feed from Tice to boot in a goal at 47:34. Tice then scored an unassisted goal at 50:40. Tice fed Albright less than a minute later and Albright finished with a goal. Kendall Smith scored an unassisted goal at 54:12.
Walker made six saves, while Smith stood out on defense.
“On defense, Kendall Smith had herself a game,” Moore said. “She was lights out on defense and marked one of their best forwards. She shut her down all game. It was an outstanding effort.”

Bellefonte (4-1)), which outshot Central 20-4, got three goals from Seth Catan, including two in the first half. Cole Stabinger assisted on Catan’s first goal at 29:35. Jacob Heston scored for the Scarlet Dragons at 35:10.
“It was a very rainy slippery game,” Bellefonte coach Scott Martz said. “Give Central credit. They came to play. They were very scrappy and made everything tough on us. We had a lot of good shots on goal and their goalkeeper played an outstanding game making some great stops. We did what we needed to do to finish the game.”
Bellefonte’s Jamin Ondrasik tied the score, 1-1, against Hollidaysburg when he scored at 21:23 of the first half off of an assist from Catan. Hollidaysburg’s Devin Walters scored his second and third goals, respectively, of the first half. Keegan Timblin scored for the Red Raiders at 46:21, but that was the last goal of the game.

Clearfield’s Tucker Scott scored the final three goals. BEA goalkeeper Tanner Pierce had 13 saves.
“We started the game on fire,” BEA coach Jason Bair said. “I wish we could have won the game, but we played a really, really tough Clearfield team tonight, and we will take the tie even though we would prefer to have a win.
“When the game was done every player or our team was exhausted and soaked. They gave me everything they had. We just couldn’t pull out the victory tonight.”
The Eagles were getting shut out until Grimes scored two goals in the final 20 minutes of the game. Dubbs assisted on both goals, one on a throw-in and the second on a corner kick that Grimes finished with a header.
Ajay Kowalski scored three of Huntingdon’s goals.
