The Eisenhower Girls traveled to Grosse Pointe North on Monday to take on the Lady Norsemen.  The girls wasted no time with an offensive onslaught, getting 1v1 opportunities and multiple scoring chances, but Norths Goalkeeper would not relent and time after time came up with saves to keep the game scoreless.  Shortly before halftime, the Eagles would get their break as a GPN defender was called for a handball in the box.   Senior Captain Lexi Morrison stepped up to the PK line and calmly struck the ball into the lower left corner, just out of the Goalkeepers reach,  putting Ike up 1-0.

The second half was more of the same, Eisenhower’s offense lead by Morrison,  Senior Amanda Stout and Senior Sadie Zyczynski out-paced GPN time and time again, while the Ike Defense kept things in check led by Senior Captain Holding-Mid Lily Arcari,  Center Back Natalie Tangelder,  Senior Left Back Zoya Dimovich and Sophomore Center Back Katie VanDeWinkle.  Junior Captain Amy Sidaway earned the shut-out in Net.
