It felt good to be home. Coming off of a 3 game week full of traveling, the Pennsbury Falcons were happy to host the visiting Upper Moreland Golden Bears at Falcon Field. PHS dominated from the start, but could not connect until 10 minutes into the first quarter. Senior, Alaina Bird fed a pass into the circle and Ava Jordan finished to light up the scoreboard 1-0. That goal ignited a flame and the orange and black scored 30 seconds later on a well placed penalty corner shot by Cailyn Reilly (inserted by Ava Jordan) putting PHS up 2-0. They were not finished scoring though, 3 minutes later, Ava Jordan assisted Alaina Bird who backhanded the shot and put the Falcons up 3-0 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter is when the scoring drought began. The game remained 3-0 going into the half. Five minutes into the third quarter, the Golden Bears found their way onto the scoreboard making it a 2 goal game. That was the only scoring in the third quarter and the final goal for UM. Head coach, Traci Curtis, points out, "We need to absolutely eliminate giving the other team opportunities to score because of a breaking down like dominoes below the 25. We have to do better and expect more from ourselves for a complete 60 minutes. Upper Moreland had some nice plays in the middle with players stepping to the ball and connecting on stick to stick passing. They were hard workers and never backed down." Pennsbury answered back in the fourth by adding two incredible goals to finish off the game winning 5-1. "Five minutes into the fourth quarter, sophomore, Mallory Harrison, took a shot from a 0% angle on the endline and connected for a great goal that seemed impossible to be true. It was unbelievable and an awesome effort by Harrison to keep the ball in play and get it on cage," said Coach, Traci Curtis. "Our final goal of the game came with 3 minutes left in the fourth when Abby Iacona reversed the ball across the circle in the air over everyone into space and Angelina Kenney batted it down out of the air passed the keeper," explained Curtis. "It was not a dangerous play at all and something you see the NCAA players doing all the time. The coordination and connection those two exhibited was so great," Curtis said. "Today was a bit sloppy and seemed disjointed at times, but it was a full team effort and we are doing a great job of helping each other at every turn. Cailyn Reilly keeps us solid in the backfield with patient play and great decision making. We are taking one step at a time and focusing only on what is in front of us," explained Curtis. Pennsbury will stay on their home turf and host Truman on Thursday afternoon.
