The Hawk has Landed

Anthony Petrucciani
On a historic day for Harding Academy in announcing our new mascot the girls varsity soccer team rose up to the occasion and earned their first win of the season and it resulted also as the first win for a Harding team as a HAWK!  Brentwood went up 1-0 early in the first half, however, our grit a determination earned us a penalty kick.  Mia Sjursen finished it nicely to even the match.  Gracie Lucas was steady in the midfield on both ends along with Charlotte Mikos and Kate Leschen.  Their efforts helped Mia tallie her second goal of the match as the the first half came to an end which also resulted as the game winner.  Our defense, anchored by our keeper Emerson Smith, kept the Hawks alive turning away numerous shots from the Eagles.   Emily McKAy, Maggie Soper, Leah Fremont played stingy defense in the middle and helped keep the Eagles scoreless in the second half.  All in all a solid team effort to get our first win of the season and that first historic  HAWK win!
