LR girls beat Pateros in soccer

The Lady Raiders soccer team defeated Pateros last week in Grand Coulee with a final score of 3-2. 

"It was a great game," Assistant Coach Merlee Liberty said. "The girls did an amazing job fighting through fatigue. We were short a couple of girls, so we weren't able to sub in and out to give the girls breaks as much as we usually can. I am very proud of how hard they worked this game."

The game took place during the team's "senior night" Thursday, with seniors on the team including Almeta Desautel, Sadi Trotter, and Glad Eyes Williams.

The Lady Raiders were scheduled to play at Liberty Bell yesterday, results of which will be published next week.
