The Louisville Leopards Girls Soccer Team defeated the Alumni 8-3 Saturday Evening at Louisville Leopards Stadium. With the victory, Louisville improves to 5-2-1 on the preseason.
Kimble Scores Four Goals in 3:31
Junior Ava Kimble scored five goals and recorded an assist to lead the Lady Leopards to victory. Trailing 2-0, Kimble provided an assist to freshman Sammi Beatty who got the Lady Leopards on the board with a goal in the 26th minute. Kimble followed that score with a goal of her own to tie the game at 2-2 with 37 seconds to go before halftime.
Out of the break, Kimble scored three consecutive goals to put Louisville ahead 5-2 less than three minutes into the second half. Unofficially, Kimble found the back of the net four times in a span of 3:31 of game time to turn a 2-1 LHS deficit into a three goal advantage.
Kimble would add her fifth goal later on in the 72nd minute to put the Leopards in command 7-3. Junior Paige Folk and senior Brooke Manley also added second half goals for Louisville who erupted for six scores in the second half.
Keelan Scores Twice to Lead Alumni
The Alumni were short a full team so five current players played for the Alumni squad rotating throughout. As a result, current Louisville sophomore Alissa Lingenhoel connected on the first goal of the contest for the Alumni in the 11th minute of action.
Recent graduate Morgan Keelan (class of 2022) scored the other two goals for the Louisville Alumni. She scored on a breakaway in the 17th minute to give the Alumni a 2-0 early advantage. Later in the second half, Keelan received a long pass and shot right to left into the side netting to cut the Alumni deficit to 6-3 with 18:27 remaining.
