10/26/10 – Quincy, CA – Shasta College Knights visited Quincy and walked away with a 3-2 conference victory. The opening half of the women’s soccer match between Feather River and Shasta looked promising for the Lady Eagles Tuesday as they jumped out to a 2-0 lead when Sage Clark opened the scoring with a breakaway goal just 8 minutes into the match. 22 minutes later Quincy local Blanca Ruiz was assisted by Madeline Ramos and picked up her 3rd goal of the season.
With a 2-0 halftime lead the Lady Eagles felt comfortable but in sports no lead is safe and 2-0 may be the most dangerous lead in soccer, momentum can shift quickly and on Tuesday afternoon it did. 10 minutes into the second half Shasta was awarded a corner kick and was able to convert a header into a goal. Shasta would tie the match 23 minutes later and then would find the eventual match winner in the final 10 minutes when Eagles keeper and Portola native Kayla Healey came for a ball but was chipped for the match winner.“Kayla has come a long way as a keeper and she had an outstanding day making 10 saves for us, we are so proud of her efforts, as we are of all of our women, they never gave up or stopped fighting” said Coach Don Williams.
