Girls' soccer: Bluffton blows out Lincolnview 12-1
The Bluffton Lady Pirates girls' soccer team traveled to Van Wert Tuesday to take on the Lincolnview Lancers. BHS won 12-1.
Bluffton started strong, and the Lancer goalie blocked more than 10 shots before Senior Captain Abbie Parkins landed the first goal 8 minutes into the game.
Twenty minutes in, Senior Katie Burkholder passed to sophomore Sarah Cartwright who scored goal two. Less than a minute later, Freshman Makayla White landed goal 3, followed by goal 4 45 seconds later. White made a pass to Parkins who landed goal 5, and Parkins passed to Senior Katie Burkholder for goal 6.
With 6 minutes left in the first half, White passed to Parkins once more, who ran straight up the middle and scored goal 7. The Lady Pirates managed to hold the Lancers to just two shots on goal for the first half, with Senior Captain Jadyn Barhorst in the goal.
The Pirates came back in the second half with sophomore goalie Hannah Yost. Four minutes in, Senior Sarah Theisen scored goal seven with a long shot right down the middle. 2 minutes late Parkins scored again with another long shot straight down the middle.
Burkholder scored again four minutes later, followed by Sophomore Averey Rumer with goal 11. The final goal was scored by Brinkley Garmatter, with the assist by Rumer.
With less than two minutes left to play, a personal foul in the box called on Bluffton gave the Lancers a penalty kick, and their first goal of the game.
