Women’s soccer team continutes to impress

The Bucks’ women’s soccer team, led by head coach Matthew Giordano and assistant coach Devon Swaim, continued their winning streak by defeating Union County Owls, 3-2, on Tuesday, Sept. 27.
This win puts them at three in a row. The entire team played a strong game, with Brooklynn Smith starting the game off with a goal at the seven minute mark off of a Jenna Bertoti assist. Smith would find the back of the net again minutes later, unassisted. These two goals are Smith’s 4th and 5th of the season.
Bertoti got in the mix as well scoring her first of the season assisted by Cassidy Rudd at the 19 minute mark. Bucks would take a 3-0 advantage into the second half. The second half would see the Owls charge back with two goals from Rosabriana Bonilla to cut the deficit to one. The Lady Centurions played tough and held off any tying goals for the last 8 minutes of the half.
“We’re playing great soccer right now and clicking at just the right part of the season, we hope to continue this momentum,” said Coach Giordano.
To add to their victories this season, the EPAC league office announced Wednesday, September 28 that Holly Bowser has been named the Eastern Pennsylvania Athletic Conference Athlete of the Week. The freshman goalkeeper from Langhorne, Pa impressed the league by posting two shutouts, making a total of 18 saves, and bringing her team to a 2-0 record for the week.
The Neshaminy High School graduate also had 14 saves against Montgomery County on Sept. 20 in a 1-0 victory, and 4 saves against Lehigh Carbon on Sept. 24 in a 2-0 win.
The Lady Centurions return home Thursday September 29th at 4:00 pm to host Camden County College at Centurion Soccer Field.
Bucks improves to 3-4-1 overall and 2-2-1 in the region.
