What: The Lady Bucs travel to conference foe West Ottawa for a huge conference game that could turn around the Bucs season.

 

When: 7:15 pm tonight at the West Ottawa soccer field

 

Previous Encounter: The Lady Bucs faced West Ottawa on April 13 where they got shut down and lost 1-0 in a hard fought game.

 

Key Player: The Lady Bucs will look to senior Olivia Buitenhuis to control the ball through the midfield, hoping to create a spark in the attacking third.

 

They said it: Our loss to Spring Lake was hardly a big loss. The game possession and shots on goal were both very close. They are a strong team and so are we. The game could have gone either way, it didn’t go ours. As for motivating these young ladies, they are self-motivated. I admire how quickly they refocus after a loss on what they need to do to improve.”–Head Coach Yvonne McKessy
