The Webster City Lynx girls soccer team returned to action on Thursday night, as they made the drive north to take on the Garner-Hayfield-Ventura Cardinals in North Central Conference action at GHV High School in Garner. The Lynx entered at 2-5-1, while GHV entered at 4-3.
Defenses ruled much of the first half, but a handball call on the Cardinals past the midway point of the half allowed junior Jayme Perez to convert on a penalty kick in the 23rd minute to put Webster City ahead 1-0 at halftime. Webster City continued to suffocate the Cardinals throughout the 2nd half, and would deliver the decisive blow with a Sandra Fuentes-Cruz goal in the 76th minute to give the Lynx a 2-0 win.
Webster City girls soccer returns to action on Monday, when they host Hampton-Dumont-CAL in North Central Conference action at Lynx Field at 5:30 PM.
