Lady Pirates Slip By Lady Wildcats In Soccer

SoccerThe Greensburg Lady Pirates soccer team hosted the Franklin County Lady Wildcats and came away with a 1-0 EIAC win.

game. Taking shots were: Bailey, Stephanie Bruns, Sierra Aylsworth, Molly Redmon, Cara Zeigler, Sarah Martin, Maddi Hellmich, Kasey Moeller
