Huron’s undefeated Chiefs 9-0-2 battled at home against D1 Belleville Tigers 11-1-2 in what turned out to be a strong physical 80 minute battle.  Belleville took advantage of an opportunity in side of the 1^st minute that kept the Chiefs playing catch up most of the game.  Back and forth action was the theme for most of the 1^st half with the Chiefs controlling possession and having a goal called back.  2nd half action saw the Tigers slowing from all the ball movement by the Chiefs; however, the Chiefs were not able to capitalize on any of their nearly a dozen shots.  Huron’s underclasswomen made a huge showing.  At any point in the game there were 6 underclasswomen of the 11 playing at the same time.  Sophomore goalkeeper Brooklyn Burke (up for Monroe County Player of the week again with 8 consecutive shutouts *please vote*), sophomore defensewoman Nhi Vo, sophomore ball handler Ava Banko, sophomore play maker Maggie Mentzer, freshmen crafty attacker Miley Skamiera, and sophomore attacking specialist Avery Turk.  It was Turk who eventually evened the score with a beautiful volley, net in the air, from an Ava Banko pass.  The Chiefs continued pushing hard for the win with some amazing near misses by Gabby Emelian, Rylie Cassette, Kendyl Sikorski, Melissa Mentzer and Maggie Warden.  In the end the game finished with the tie and a lot of unsatisfied Chief players who knew the game was theirs’ for the taking.  Nevertheless, the Chiefs maintained their undefeated season with much credit going to their backline junior Callie Eaton, Senior captain Lily Cholette and all-star junior defender Addison Dolencic.

Avery Turk 1 goal

Ava Banko 1 assist
