AMES — The Gilbert girls soccer team was unable to withstand a quick North Scott scoring spurt in a 3-0 loss to the Lancers in the Class 2A quarterfinals of the girls state soccer tournament on June 8 at the Lied Recreation Fields.
North Scott struck twice within two minutes late in the first half and Gilbert never recovered in suffering its first and only loss of the season.
"When you get down in a hole, it's hard to dig out," said Gilbert co-head coach Heather Currans. "They definitely have the talent to do that; it just wasn't going to happen for us tonight."
The first goal came after Gilbert was whistled for a penalty in the box. Leading Lancer scorer Reese Barnett converted the penalty kick to start the scoring with eight minutes left in the first half.
North Scott struck again when Camryn Jones got one past Gilbert keeper Annika Yoder-Stoulil with 6:37 left in the first half.
