Wolves bounce Tigers
Edmond Santa Fe star nets hat trick as BA's season ends.
BROKEN
ARROW — Edmond Santa Fe's Caitlin Mooney took a sabbatical from high school
soccer last season.
Mark Broken Arrow as one of many schools perhaps wishing she took off her
senior year, also.
Mooney scored three goals to vault the Wolves to a 4-1 victory over host
Broken Arrow in the Class 6A semifinals on Tuesday night.
Edmond Santa Fe (12-4) will meet Jenks for the state championship on
Saturday at Mustang High School. The Trojans defeated Edmond Memorial 3-0 in
another semifinal.
"These girls have been on a mission for the last three weeks," Wolves coach
Larry Truesdell said.
Edmond Santa Fe has won 11 straight matches, and only allowed two goals
during that span.
Truesdell admitted it was a comfortable feeling when his team blasted to a
three-goal lead at halftime.

Deer Creek owns 9-game shutout streak
The
Deer Creek girls soccer team has entered rarified air this season.
Not only have the Antlers won nine of their matches this season, they also
haven’t allowed a goal all season.
“We challenged ourselves to get a shutout each game,” first-year coach Amel
Muhamed-agic said. “So far, we’ve met that challenge.”
The Antlers are also looking for their first Class 5A state championship
since 1995.
They have gotten to the state semifinals in each of the last six years, but
have lost those matches to Tulsa’s Bishop Kelley.
The Antlers have all but clinched their district championship, and will
likely host the first two rounds of the playoffs.
Deer Creek has just two seniors in its lineup, Amy Grow and Melissa McLaws.
Despite their young lineup, the Antlers have a lot of game experience. Ten
of their 11 starters play on club teams, either in the Northwest OKC Soccer
Club or Edmond Soccer Club.
“We have a lot of kids who play on club teams,” Muhamedagic said. “We’ve had
a good mix of the younger and older players.”
In its last match, Deer Creek routed El Reno 10-0.
