(10/22)  It was a gorgeous fall day for soccer and the girls had fun. The Thunder's Lacey Kling made a goal in the first half and Lauren Ambrookian made a goal in the second half. The final score was 6-2, the Flames.

(10/8) The Thunder beat the FC Junior Orioles 12-2!  Lauren Ambrookian started the game off with 1, 2, 3 goals, with an assist by Lacey Kling, followed by Mollie Johnson making the 4th goal in the 1st quarter. The  Thunder led 4-0. Next Madelyn Gammon and Lauren Ambrookian both make 1 goal each  in the 2nd quarter. At the half, the Thunder led 6-1. Thunder kept up the pace  in the 2nd half, with Madelyn Gammon making 2 goals and Mollie Johnson making 1  goal in the 3rd quarter. The Thunder led 9-2.  In the last and final  quarter, Lauren Ambrookian and Lacey Kling make 1 goal each, Madison Stromberg  has a nice attempt,  Katelyn Ritcher has a great save, which prevented the  Orioles from scoring (again in the game) and allowing Makayla Toy just enough  time to make the final goal of the game!  Above and beyond all the goals  made, the players talked to each other and passed the ball to each other showing  great team work.  What a great game.

(10/1) The Thunder took the lead in the 1st Quarter and kept it through the end. The team was very engaged with handling the ball, anticipating the Elm Grove Rockets every move. There was  great offense by Madelyn Gammon, Katelyn Ritcher, Madison Stromberg and Makayla  Toy. At the half, the Thunder led in goals 4 - 2 made by Mollie Johnson (2),  Lauren Ambrookian (1) and Emma Struebing (1).  In the 2nd half, the Thunder  scored two more goals by Lacey Kling (1) and Mollie Johnson (1) for a final  score of 6 - 4. Great Game!

Good game played by both teams this week.  Thunder's teamwork paid off but Blaster's passing skills kept them in the lead. In the first half Sussex Thunder scored two, by Madelyn Gammon, versus Elm Grove Blasters five scores. In the second half the Thunder made up ground scoring five, by Emma Struebing (3), Katelyn Ritcher (1) and Lacey Kling (1), versus the Blasters four scores. Final score, the Thunder was defeated 7 - 9 by the Blasters. Good job girls!

(9/17) The Thunder dominated the field against the Falls Galaxy.  Great offensive playing by Emma Struebing and Madison Stromberg, and goals by Lauren Ambrookian and Madelyn Gammon, with an assist by Mollie Johnson, had the Thunder leading the game 2-1 at the half.  In the second half the Galaxy gained another goal and the Thunder added 7 more goals made by Lauren Ambrookian, Mollie Johnson (3), Madelyn Gammon (2)and Lacy Kling, with assists by Lacey Kling and Madelyn Gammon.  The Thunder was able to prevent the Galaxy from gaining any momentum with their fancy defensive goalie techniques played by Mollie Johnson, Makayla Toy and Madelyn Gammon.  At the end, the Thunder had defeated the Galaxy 9-2.

(9/10) For the first game of the season, the Thunder was defeated by the Sussex U8 Girls Flames.  The team worked hard together throughout the game, even with the hot morning sun blazing down on the field.  The team pulled it together in the second half allowing Mollie Johnson to score the first and only goal of the game. Great offensive drives by Lauren Ambrookian, Emma Struebing and defensive plays by Lacey Kling kept the Flames on their toes.
