Knockouts hold off Chaos in AYSO Region 55 girls’ soccer match
The Knockouts grabbed an early two-goal lead, fell behind in the
second half, then rallied to take a 4-3 victory from Chaos in an AYSO
Region 55 girls’ under-12 division match.
Lindsay Conlisk scored the first two goals for the Knockouts, with
Briana Montgomery and Katelyn Serrano getting assists following feeds
from midfielders Nicky Gonzalez and Allison McCaughtry, respectively.
Chaos battled back to tie the score at 2-2 behind goals by Kylie
Kestler and Julia Hiserodt, with help from Katelyn Callanan.
Chaos grabbed a 3-2 advantage early in the second half when Kiana
Demers dropped in a shot from midfield.
In the fourth quarter, the Knockouts tied the game at 3-3 when
Serrano scored off a feed from Lauren Franco. In the final minute of
play, Montgomery scored on a perfectly timed kick to give the
Knockouts an insurance goal.
The goaltending of Bethany Treskes and Nicole Brashears and the
defensive play of Jessica Alvarez and Alissa Mowrey prevented a
relentless Chaos offense from scoring on nine occasions.
