Piedmont Middle School Girls Soccer Win

The Piedmont Academy Middle School girls soccer team capped their 2012 season with a 2-0 victory against Gatewood last Thursday.

Anna Martin scored a goal in the first half with Taylor Swart adding a second-half goal.

“We dominated the whole game,” said coach Jake Landress. “We played exactly the way we were supposed to the entire time. It was a great way for our eighth graders to end their middle school careers. I look forward to having them on varsity next spring.”

Eighth grade players who will look at moving up next season include Jordan Chandler, Haley Tyler, Matti Smith, Anna Martin, Summer Collins, Alicia Peek, Bridgette Phillips, Morgan Leach and Taylor Swart.

Returning seventh graders include Caroline Davis, Bailyn Whitaker, Madison Burnham and Maddie Mooneyham. Sixth graders on this year’s squad included Anne Marie Hildebrandt.
