Andes Girls Win Cohen Classic
Contributed By John Bernhardt
The resurgent Andes Girls’ Soccer team made history again Tuesday when they downed Roscoe, 4-0, to win the championship of the first ever Cohen Classic. Andes had upset the host school Margaretville, 3-2, in opening round action and brought home the title with a convincing win over Roscoe.
Andes used unselfish passing to dominate play throughout the contest, but goals didn’t come easily in the early going. Kailtin Mackay tallied the only score of the opening half scoring unassisted midway through the half.
Mariah Ruff gave the Mountaineers some breathing room early in the second half. Ruff used a pass from Mackay, turning on the ball to take a shot that sailed high into the right hand corner of the nets for Andes second score.
Andes added on nicely, scoring two more times in the half. Shianne Coss threaded a pass along the ground from the right wing, finding Karli Tait open for the Mountaineer’s third goal. Ruff scored her second goal of the game on an assist from Rayna Tuch to complete the scoring.
The win was Andes fourth of the season reaching the team goal set in the preseason and meaning that Co-coach Tom Liddle will be losing his moustache soon. The Andes girls are now 4-4-1 on the season and will continue their bid to reach the Section IV playoffs in Jefferson on Thursday, October 1.
