The Lady Eagles had a tough match on Thursday, September 15 against the undefeated and Mountian League-leading Clearfield Lady Bison.

The Lady Eagles kept it close early but were unable to keep up, losing 8-2.

Clearfield scored early but Tyrone managed to hold Clearfield to just two goals throughout most of the first half. But around the 30-minute mark, the game started to break out of reach for the Lady Eagles.

Both teams were batting for the ball in the midfield but Clearfield’s Mia Smith managed to break through Tyrone’s defense to score their third goal of the night at 30:51.

Elle Smith then went on to add 3 more goals in the next 5 minutes and the Lady Bison ended the half with a commanding 6-0 lead.

The Lady Eagles went out to the second half with high intensity, and to their credit, did not give up. Sophomore Lexi Hess managed to get past Clearfield’s defense and the goalie to give Tyrone their first goal of the night. Hess was assisted by senior Chloe LaRosa off of a free kick.

Hess and LaRosa continued to pass the ball around up the field. Larosa got the ball and dribbled up to the 18, she took a few touches and then shot the ball into the top of the net. LaRosa went unassisted giving Tyrone their second goal of the night.

Those two goals ended up being the only offense for the Eagles, as the game ended 8-2 with the Lady Bison coming out on top.
