The girls soccer team?s wait came to an end Tuesday as they won their first game of the year in a 4-0 drubbing of Glencoe-Silver Lake.
The Panthers embarrassed the Tigers earlier this year, beating them 3-0 in their home opener. It was the first time GSL beat Hutch in its three years as a varsity squad.
With time running out to get a win in the regular season, the Tigers exacted their revenge on the Panthers.
Hutch goalie Emily Olinger saved 14 shots to shut out the Panthers, and attackers Rebecca Rancour and Mariah Mraz took turns scoring one goal each in both halves.
Climbing out of the cellar
With a handful of WCC games left in the regular season, the Tigers have a chance to get out of last place by the end of the week.
Both Hutch and GSL are 1-7 in the conference, each with a win against the other.
Hutch faced Holy Family Saturday, and has games against Waconia and Delano on Tuesday and Thursday.
The Panthers have only one game left against Holy Family on Thursday.
The reason for the uneven number of conference games is because the WCC has a power schedule.
That means the conference standings are decided by points, which are earned for wins and ties.
Most conference teams play each other twice, and each of those games is worth two points.
Some teams only play each other once in the regular season, though, and those games are worth four points.
The maximum number of points a team can earn is 24.
With only one game left, the most GSL could win is four more points against the Fire.
Hutch has the possibility of winning six points, but it won?t be easy for either teams to get points in the final week.
The Tigers? final three games are all against teams that beat them once already by four goals or more.
