South girls topple Bridgeport, 3-2
PARKERSBURG — Parkersburg South got a strong start, scoring two goals within 40 seconds of each other in just the third minute of the game, but then had to stave off a late rally by No. 8 Bridgeport to upset the visiting Indians 3-2 Thursday night in girls soccer at the Erickson All-Sports Facility. The win improved the 15th-ranked Patriots’ season slate to 9-7-2 with one regular-season game remaining at Wheeling Park Thursday before facing Parkersburg High in the first round of the Class AAA sectional tournament at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Ripley High School. The loss dropped Bridgeport to 15-4-1. Kari Simon notched the first South goal and Sarah Beha tallied the other two, including what proved to be the game-winner at 23:59 of the second half to give the Patriots a 3-0 lead. But Bridgeport put the ball in the net at the 10:28 and 6:46 marks of the second half to slice the deficit to just one.
