Devils Roll By Potters in Girls Soccer

Otto scores 6 times to bring her total to 43

ST. CLAIRSVILLE — The St. Clairsville girls’ soccer team score in bunches. It did so again Wednesday on the pitch inside Red Devil Stadium as it locked down the top seed in the OVAC Class 4A tournament, which will open Tuesday, with an 11-0 whitewashing of East Liverpool.

“Our girls came out to play again,” St. Clairsville coach Wes Stoner said. “Regardless of who our girls have faced, and it’s not been the strongest schedule, we’re still winning and playing well. The most important thing is getting the win and goal differential doesn’t mean a thing to us.”

The win extends St. C.’s unbeaten string to 10 and its winning streak to nine. The Red Devils haven’t been challenged much during this opening half of the season. However, that will probably change Saturday when St. C. treks to Beaver Local for a defacto Buckeye 8 championship game.

“That’s a huge game,” Stoner said. “Two undefeated teams, so it should be good. We also know the OVAC isn’t going to be easy. I keep telling the girls we have to continue to get better because regardless of how many games we’ve won already, we really haven’t accomplished anything.”

St. Clairsville wasted no time in asserting itself against the Potters. High-scoring junior Alyssa Otto continued her assault on area netminders. Just 3:18 into the contest, Otto dialed up her first goal. She didn’t stop there.

Otto had recorded a hat trick in the opening 18-plus minutes of the match. Talented freshman Macy Malin recorded two goals 45 seconds apart in the latter stages of the first half, making it a 5-0 halftime reading.

the lead scoring the next point. The Maroon Knights didn’t break and scored five of the final six points to put an end to any comeback.

“The most important set is the second set,” Shadyside coach Don Chamberlain said. “So many times in high school and college a team will win the first set and then lose the next three. We didn’t play really well, but I don’t want to make excuses. We just didn’t play well.

”Frankly, they dug up everything that we put down. We didn’t serve well, that did make a difference. I’m very proud of Central’s team as well as my team. My team didn’t give up. They could have given up a couple of times and they came back.”

Nikki Nolte tallied three aces, five digs and 13 kills for the Maroon Knights while Madison Wiedebusch had four digs and eight kills. Julie Padden had 26 assists and Kaitlyn Ferns compiled 10 kills and four blocks.
