The St. Anthony’s senior girls Soccer team competed at the South Central Zone Championships over the weekend hosted by Hugh Sutherland High School in Carstairs.
There were 8 teams competing at Zones with St. Anthony’s being the only 1A school. All other schools were 3A level, over 300 students in high school population.
Teams were placed in two pools of 4 playing in a round robin format.
In St. Anthony’s first game on Friday, October 2, they lost 8-0 to a very tough Springbank team then had to play a back to back game losing a very tight match to Hugh Sutherland/Olds Koinonia Christian School 3-0.
In the Sabres final round robin game they lost 5-0 to Canmore.
On Saturday, the Sabres regrouped and put forward their best game of the season beating Strathmore 3-0 to finish in 7th place.
“This win showed remarkable improvement as the Sabres had previously been defeated by a score of 4-1 by Strathmore at the 6th Annual Sr. Sabres Invitational Tournament,” said coach Gavin Makse.
“All team members showed great improvement.”
The Sabres will be wrapping up the season in the next two weeks with a few exhibition games.
