Women’s Soccer Ending Season With Playoff Push

Women’s soccer has had a long and exhaustive season thus far. With a current record of 5-12-0 overall as well as a conference record of 2-4-0, Coach Dan Mouw and the Eagles are holding on to a fourth place ranking for the Freedom Conference Tournament in the upcoming weeks. Despite the fight for their place in the tourney the players themselves have been shining bright. Lead scorer Emily Cole currently has eight goals and four assists on the season.

While on the other side of the coin senior Elayna Simpson has been out of goal due to injury, leaving the position to sophomore Jules Leco who has been performing well for the team. The team has a lot of strong players, including senior Emily Roqumore, who has three goals and five assists this season.

With Freedom Semifinals on Nov. 5 the Eagles have two more games left to hold their place. The last two games will be Wednesday Oct. 29 against Ursinus at 3:30p.m. and Saturday Nov. 1 against Wilkes at 12p.m.

The team needs to give it all they got these next few days in order to hold their place.

Making the Freedom Conference playoffs will not be an easy task for the Eastern Eagles. However,with the help of players like Roqumore and Cole the Eagles are sure to do so. If the Eagles do make the playoffs, they will surely attempt to make a long run with the goal of a conference title. In this conference, making a run during the playoffs is not out of the question.Both of the last two games are at home so be sure to come out and fill the hill in support of your Lady Eagles.
