Performance

Porter was a force to be reckoned with on the re-defend today, mercilessly going after the ball and racking up a few CTOs. She fought for every ground ball within—and beyond—her reach, and she used her speed to make a beautiful fast break that ended with her gerting the ball in the back of the net.

CO-MVP

Tatum Stevens

Tatum played heads-up defense the entire game, making the Centaurs pay for their mistakes. Her stick was always in just the right place, and she fearlessly ran through ground balls, coming up with them and successfully kicking off a number of transitions.

Eagles Fall to Centaurs

Los Angeles, CA — In the first game back from spring break the Eagles put up a fight in the first half, coming back from a 1-4 deficit to lead 7-6 at halftime. Defense worked as a unit and continued to do so throughout the game, crashing early and staying strong against the Culver City attack. Transitions looked solid in the first half, with clean passing moving the ball seamlessly from defense to attack, and the Eagles were quick to capitalize on the fast ball movement to put it in the back of the net. However, Culver came out strong in the second half and took advantage of a few missed connections in the midfield to turn the game back in their favor. Their consistency resulted in six goals scored each half, giving them the edge over El Segundo. The Eagles will face Culver again at home on Senior Night on April 27, and they will take on Peninsula this Friday in Palos Verdes.
