Jefferson regroups after Vernon scores a mid-game goal.

The Lady Vikings of Vernon defeated the Lady Falcons of Jefferson this past Saturday by a score of 4-1. The Falcons’ only positive was a lone goal scored by Kim An while the Vikings lead an offensive onslaught. The Vikings scored three goals in the first half of the game and another in the second half.

The Falcons squandered their own chances to capitalize with mistakes. While Vernon kept the pressure on all afternoon with speed an agility and did not stop to the final whistle.

For the Faclons there is no need to worry as this is only Jefferson’s second loss of the season. They are still a playoff caliber team. Jefferson has nine more games in this year’s season.

The Jefferson Falcon girls varsity soccer team’s next game is October 8, 2009 at home against the Hackettstown High School Tigers. The Hackettstown Tigers vs. the Jefferson Falcons game begins at 4:00PM on the football field.

NOTES: In the second half senior midfielder Jen Winkler left the game for Jefferson after a collision with a Vernon player. Winkler at the end of the day had a sore neck.
