GIRLS SOCCER ROUNDUP: Adams gets offensive on Clarkston; Avondale rolls
CLARKSTON — Rochester Adams is proving that it is not going to be easy to knock off as OAA Red Division girls soccer champions. The Highlanders are still unbeaten this year.
After winning the league title last season with only two seniors in the starting lineup, the Highlanders moved to 3-0-2 on the year with an impressive 6-0 shutout of host Clarkston Thursday.
The Wolves (0-2-2), which won the OAA White Division title last season with an unbeaten record (9-0-1) made the leap up the OAA-Red but were not match for Adams in this encounter. The Highlanders defeated Clarkston in last year’s district finals, 3-1.
Adams scored twice in the first half and tacked on four more wind-aided goals in the second half to remain atop the conference standings at 3-0-1. The Highlanders tied Troy two days earlier and also have a non-league draw against Utica Eisenhower, another one of the state’s top teams.
Merlin Beckwith finished with the hat trick for Adams. Mackenzie Barber, Kylie Nylen and Macy Houghlin also tallied for the Highlanders. Jessica Wineke picked up her third shutout.
