Lady Cards win big

The Lady Cards defeated Tacoma Community College 8-0 on Tuesday.

Megan Pagano scored a hat trick. She is a Sophomore forward from Sandpoint High.

On Defense, keepers Madi Williams and Cassy Van Der Mey had three saves a piece in the shutout.

Players Pagano, Taylor Peterson, Whitney Reichold, Haley White, Natasha Wilkerson and Katelyn Sly drove the bell into the net. White had three assists. NIC shot 20 times on goal. Tacoma shot only once.

Last season Pagano sat on the bench because of a torn tendon and broken bone in her hand. She said that she misses scoring. She said, “It wasn’t a league game, but this wasn’t our first game. It’s nice to make a statement.”

The team travels to Salem on Friday for their next outing to play Clackamas Community College. The next game at Eisenwhite Field is on Tuesday at 2 p.m. against Walla Walla Community College.
