Girls Varsity Soccer Hunts the Bobcats
Rye Girls Varsity Soccer hunted the Bobcats of Byram Hills on Friday, winning away 3-2.
“Rye’s Isabel Harvey and Lyla Keenan returned from being injured and had a huge impact against their rival the Bobcats of Bryam Hills,” said Rye Girls Varsity Soccer Coach Rich Savage. “Isabel Harvey scored in the 4th minutes of the game to give Rye an early lead. Just 10 minutes later, Harvey netted her second goal to give Rye a 2 – 0 lead. Junior captain Maddy Walsh assisted both of Harvey’s goals.”
Bryam would battle back scoring a goal with 10 minutes left to play. As the second half started, Rye gained composure and started to move the ball nicely around the field. Lyla Keenan scored at the 15 minute mark of the second half to give Rye a 3 – 1 lead.
Sage Ruttenberg played well defensively shutting down Bryan’s best players. The Bobcats added a second goal with two minutes left to bring the Bobcats within one goal. Freshman Tessa Labowitz was solid in the goal for Rye.
The season shifts to 6-1. Rye will host Mamaroneck 7:00pm Saturday night at Rye High School Nugent Stadium (watch it).
