GIRLS

CLASS 6A

Montgomery Academy 2, Pike Road 0

Fourth-ranked Montgomery Academy blanked Pike Road at home on Tuesday. The Montgomery area rivals played a scoreless first half.

Montgomery Academy (12-3-1) got on the board with 15 minutes left in the second half when Sophia Cho took a shot on the edge of the box that went in at the bottom left corner. Kerstin Daniel added an insurance goal two minutes later, taking a quick throw-in pass and beating her defender from 20 yards out.

Montgomery Academy finished its home season undefeated and will play at No. 6 Spanish Fort (14-7-1) on Friday in the third round.

CLASS 4A

Westminster Christian 12, West Morgan 0

Top-ranked and defending champion Westminster Christian made short work of West Morgan at home on Tuesday to advance to the second round of the state playoffs.

The Wildcats scored all 12 goals in the opening half, ending the game.

Jasmine Feld and AnnaLi Weekley both scored hat tricks for Westminster Christian. Eighth-grader Annie Collier and senior Clara Norris scored 2 goals each in the rout. Seniors Esther Parker and Callie Lanier finished the scoring for the Wildcats with a goal each.

Westminster (15-2-1) did not allow a shot on goal all night making keeper Piper Blazier a spectator. West Morgan never moved the ball inside the box and only possessed the ball past midfield five times all game.

Westminster will travel to Mars Hill – a 3-2 winner over Priceville on penalty kicks in overtime on Tuesday – on Thursday for a 5 p.m. contest. The winner will advance to the semifinals on May 8 in Huntsville at John Hunt Park.
