The Lady Tigers made it two wins in a row on Thursday, beating, 4-1, at Eastside Park in Mountain Home.

Shianna Hawley scored three goals in the win, and Jessica Tindall had one. Amy Hymer had two assists.

"It was a good effort," said Mountain Home girls soccer coach Dan Snelgrow after the game. "We're finally figuring out our forwards and we're pushing them through, and we'll see if we can do it again Monday. Hopefully, we can keep this going and put a couple more goals, in the net.

"The effort is definitely there. The girls are working hard and playing hard, and I think this is a good team, and I think it is a team to be reckoned with later on in the season."

The Lady Tigers improved to 2-1-1 with the win. They hit the road for the first time this week. They played at Nampa on Monday, and are at Bishop Kelly today (Wednesday). They are back home next Tuesday against Emmett, and go to Skyview next Thursday and to Jerome next Friday.
