Knights vs White Lightening

After a long weekend in Gainesville, the Knights took on White Lightening. In the first half, the Knights scored the first goal which was passed by Leanne Hill, and finished by Samantha Major. White Lightening soon tied the game, then scored another, leaving the Knights with eight minutes of play left in the first half. Samantha Major passed a ball outside the box, and Kimmy Westmoreland finished it beautifully. With Karen McDaniel in goal, Aileen Herrara at sweeper, the Knights did a great job of defending for the remainder fo the half. In the second half, the Knights came out hard and Samantha Major took a hard shot at the goal, and though the keeper deflected it, Erika Schaefer was there to sink it into the back of the net. The White Lightening scored another goal, again tying the game. The Knights did not let down, and with fifteen minutes left of play, Shannon Schaefer made a poised pass to Samantha Major, who scored the winning goal for the Knights!
