Oldenburg Academy beat Greensburg 7-1 in Boys Soccer action.
14th ranked OA soccer girls came out with a 5-0 victory against the Greensburg Lady Pirates in the graveyard on Saturday.
OA came out quick when sophomore Elizabeth Schulte placed a perfect corner kick into the box and with a head and a few feet kicking it around the ball found the back of the net. This was recorded as an own goal. OA continued to control the game and connected on another goal by sophomore Haleigh Reed. Right before the end of the half, Elizabeth Schulte had another great cross where Haleigh Reed was able to find the back of the net for the second goal of the game. At half OA was leading 3-0.
Reed started the half off strong when she scored her third goal of the day with a great through ball from senior captain Sarah Wilder. OA’s final goal came from senior captain Ella Lamping with 24 minutes left in the second half from a cross by senior captain Kirsten Ricke. Regan Weberding recorded 7 saves on the day and freshman Lizze Kelnhofer recorded one save. OA recorded 36 shots to Greensburg’s 9 shots. Our defense has really started playing together as a unit after losing 4 starters to graduation last year.
OA will be in action next in the Batesville Invitational where their first game they take on Centerville High School.
OA jumps to 3-1 on the season.
