Nancy Boyack started things by taking a pass from Amanda Arrant in the 12th minute. WNCC then added four more goals in the first half for the 5-0 lead.
Arrant got the second goal off an assist by Tamika Smith, followed by a goal by Bre Perkes. Smith then picked up her second assist on the day by feeding LeAnna Paxton with a goal. Smith then finished off the scoring by taking a pass from Paxton for the final score.
WNCC had 11 shots on goal for the day, while Neosha had 0.
Rasnic said that Neosha is not that bad of a team, it is just that his girls are playing well.
“They were not a bad team, our ladies just took them out of their game from the beginning,” he said. “The second half I told the ladies to just possess the ball and I don’t think they (Neosha) touched the ball, made a pass, for the first 12 minutes of the game. Late in the game, I even pulled players and we were playing with just 10 players.”
The men couldn’t overcome a good Neosha men’s team falling 2-1. Still, the men had opportunities to win in the evenly matched contest.
WNCC finished the game with eight shots on goal to Neosha’s five, and six corner kicks to Neosha’s two. WNCC had 14 penalties compared to Neosha’s 21. In fact, it was a penalty kick that was the difference in the game.
One minute, 34 seconds into the match, Neosha scored on a penalty kick. The scored stayed that way until the 60th minute when Neosha made it 2-0.
WNCC sliced the lead in half as Eloy Matos scored off an assist by Lazzaro Torres, but they couldn’t get any closer.
“I thought we played extremely well,” Rasnic said. “It is sad to see it won on a penalty kick. It should have been a 1-1 tie.”
