Junior Emily Parker and freshman Ella Fadale each scored one goal with one assist to lead Brockport to a 3-1 victory over Churchville-Chili in girl’s soccer.
Parker netted her team-best seventh goal of the season after a feed from sophomore Gisela Allen just 7:32 into the contest to stake the Blue Devils to a 1-0 lead.
In the 14th minute they extended it to 2-0 as junior Avery Rockow found Fadale at the top of the box, who then put her shot just inside the right post.
The Saints battled right back less than two minutes later as junior Kaley McNamara broke down the right wing, took one-step around the rushing goalkeeper and found the empty net to bring her team within 2-1.
They came close to tying the contest late in the first half as Hanna Shipley found Sklar Donohue, but her chance was tipped just over the crossbar by Brockport goalkeeper Doralis Allen.
But the Blue Devils came out strong in the second half as Fadale put a shot off the outside of the right post just five minutes in.
In the 59th minute Fadale sent a perfect left cross that was redirected into the back of the net by sophomore Sydney Brew to give Brockport an insurance goal and a 3-1 lead.
The Saints threatened in the 83rd minute as Hanna Shipley fed Jade Distant, but her attempt was saved.
“We didn’t give up many chances in the second half, nothing really dangerous,” Brockport head coach Matt Davis said. “We told them (at halftime) that we need to finish the game and needed one more goal and then play it out.”
The Blue Devils improved their overall record to 6-3 and in a race with Greece Athena and Pittsford Sutherland at the top of the Monroe County Division 3 standings.
