Governors Sweep Brandon Valley on Senior Day

Governors Sweep Brandon Valley on Senior Day

The Pierre Governor soccer teams would host the Brandon Valley Lynx on Saturday on Senior day and the Govs would pick up two wins, 5-3 in the girls game and 2-1 in the boys game.

Gracelyn Taylor would start the day off scoring early on in the first half, but Jasmine Jost would score just moments later to get the Govs up 2-0 quickly with a give and go with Natalie Flottmeyer. Flottmeyer would make it 3-1 for Pierre late in the first half after a mad scramble in front of the net resulted in the ball trickly right over to Flottmeyer who beat the keeper. After the Lynx pulled within one at 3-2, Lexie Hillmer would make it 4-2 and then finish off the match with a goal to make it 5-3 and seal the win for the Governors to improve to 7-2 on the season.

The Governor boys would pick up a 2-1 shortened game with the storm fast approaching. Caleb Morris would get the Govs the lead in the first half off a free kick. The Govs would add a second goal and as Brandon Valley made it 2-1, the storm came in resulting in the game being called early, but because it was far enough along, it does count for Pierre to pick up a win. It improves the Governors to 6-2-1 on the season.

Pierre will be off until Saturday when they travel out to Tea. The boys play first at 12:00 and the girls at 2:00.
