CA @ East Chapel Hill High School    0 - 1

A late game, under the lights, on a football field, and a new opponent were the key ingredients in last night's field hockey game.  The Wildcats pounced early and scored off an offensive corner.  Goalie, Mimi Fuchs never allowed the ball past the line again.  Her aggressive, positive and solid performance on the field was inspiring to all who watched.  Shelby Neaville switched gears from defense to offense and became a serious threat in the circle.  Dara Schwartz and Catherine Sheffield worked the ball up the field and created many scoring opportunities.  On an offensive corner, Courtney Berger tapped the ball in, unfortunately, the referee called a stroke.  Sarah Woronoff's stroke didn't get past the goalie, but her play dominated the Wildcats on both sides of the field.  Elisabeth Sheffield and Heather Warner's defensive play was brilliant.  Katja Kleine found her groove and moved the ball up and down the field like a seasoned pro.  The Charger's defense of Renee Montpetit, Emily Cornell and Brittany Miles didn't allow the Wildcats to connect again on offense.  After 50 minutes of play the Charger's lost their first game, but it was one game that showcased the greatness that is Cary Academy Field Hockey.

The Chargers continued their winning momentum after traveling to Raleigh and beating Saint Mary's 3-0.  Sarah Woronoff started the charge after the first whistle blew.  With five minutes remaining, Courtney Berger and Carrie Weaver passed the ball to the post where an open Dara Schwartz beat the goalie.  On a well executed corner play, Catherine Sheffield tallied the second goal after a pass from Sarah Woronoff.  The second half produced one goal stemming from another beautiful corner. Dara Schwartz nailed the ball into the cage after receiving the ball from Catherine Sheffield and Carrie Weaver.  The Chargers nucleus of Katja Kleine, Elisabeth Sheffield and Heather Warner continually made things happen.  Emily Cornell continued her amazingly strong play in the backfield.  The aggressive and consistent play of defensemen, Shelby Neaville and Renee Monpetit rarely allowed the ball in the circle.  Mimi Fuchs and Emily Bisset's fierce presence awarded both another shut-out.

CA @ Chapel Hill High School    1 - 1

The Chargers faced a strong opponent in the Chapel Hill Tigers last night.  A stroke called in the first half gave the Chargers a scoring opportunity.  Shelby Neaville lifted the ball beautifully toward the cage, but the Tiger's goalkeeper was quick with her glove.  Both teams were scoreless at half time, but the Tigers connected early in the second.  This was the first goal the Chargers allowed this 2007 season.  Despite the 1-0 score, the Chargers rallied and began an offensive drive down the field.  In the final ten minutes of the game Katja Kleine and Heather Warner moved the ball into the Tiger's circle to find an open Dara Schwartz on the post.  The game ended in a tie of 1-1.  It was a great game, one that will be remembered for a long time.
