Scots girls advance to quarter finals in state tournament

Shorecrest's girls soccer team dominated Black Hills 4-0 Wednesday night in a first round State Tournament game at Shoreline Stadium.

The Scots advance to Saturday's quarter-finals against defending 3A champion Liberty.

Sophia Viviano got the Scots on the board with her 25th goal of the season midway in the first half.

Ten minutes into the second half, Rachel Moulton drilled a long shot from distance to make it 2-0. Ten minutes later. MacKenzie Perry blasted one past the Wolves' beleaguered netminder Jordan Westby to put the game out of reach.

Viviano provided icing on the cake with her second goal of the night with twelve minutes left to play.

Scots' coach Mindy Dalziel cited a renewed focus going into the game on her team playing their style of game; a ball-controlling, passing offense, rather than chucking up long shots.

 "We played with greater intensity and attention to detail, and I was really glad to see other girls chip in with the scoring. And our defense really stepped up, as they have all season."

Kate Wiper, in net for the Scots, accounted for her tenth shutout of the season. She faced only one threatening shot all night.
