A pair of scores by Coffee County off of corner kicks proved to be the deciding factor on Thursday as the Lady Raiders blanked Franklin County 2 to 0 in district soccer action. The Lady Raiders dominated the time of possession and out shot Franklin County on the match 20 to 7. Senior keeper Holli Smithson was credited with 4 saves in the shutout win.
Coffee County got their first goal in the 30th minute as Karson Young collected a loose ball in the crease, off of an Allie Amado corner kick, and guided it past the Rebelette keeper. That 1 to 0 score held up until the half. In the second half, Caitlyn Moore pushed a ball into the net off another corner from Amado in the 55th minute.
The win raises the Lady Raiders record to 10-3-1 on the season and 4-1 in district play. The Lady Raiders are back at home on Saturday for a 10 AM match with Central Magnet.
