'It's just incredible.' With three corner kicks that turned into three goals, fletchersoccer advanced one game away from becoming Duval County's first public school girls soccer champion, while two more area teams advanced to championship games.
In his four seasons at Fletcher, girls soccer coach Bradley Plummer had never seen his team score a goal directly from a corner kick before.
The senior midfielder broke a second-half tie with a goal direct from a corner kick and helped create two more goals for Angelina Madera off set plays, leading the Senators past visiting Viera 3-1 at a boisterous Jack Taylor Stadium in Friday night's Florida High School Athletic Association Class 6A semifinal.
But the Senators introduced several tactical tweaks after the break, installing Ameera White and Hannah Campos in a midfield of five and deploying the fleet-footed Avery Langlois to left fullback to contain the raids of dangerous Viera winger George. "We've had a lot of adversity all year with injuries and our depth," Viera coach Calvin Dixon said.
"On a run like this, you've got to get some breaks," Plummer said."That was kind of the goal that broke the game open." "We've worked so hard and we've really come together at the right time of the year," Plummer said."For the girls to achieve what they've already achieved and to be this close to potentially become a state champion, it's just incredible."Sophomore midfielder Avery Robinson netted a first-half goal and the Knights marched on to DeLand, winning 1-0 over visiting Palm Harbor University .
