I believe you are correct but even so, their last 11 could put up a game against some high schools. Even with no-cut, BF is so talented right now most girls would not want to go out for the team if they were not at least somewhat able to play at a decent level. Didn't intend to imply otherwise (and have lots of friends at Franklin). There was a thread earlier in season (can't remember boys or girls) that was having the no-cut discussion & so I thought I'd mention it here. I have read enough of your posts to know you would not imply such. Just thinking out loud.

LCP left back with a long ball over the top. BF keeper gets to the ball at the edge of the box, just beating LCP 9 to it.

LCP 11 passes out to the right for 9, who dribbles into the box, toward the endline. She crosses on the ground to 5, open with a great chance but shoots high and over the bar!
LCP's best chance of the match (I think they had two shots from long range so far).

Goal BF! Noelle Higginson attacks the middle of the defense and then passes from the top of the box into Thomas, who finishes from about 7 yards out 1v1 with the keeper. She's not going to miss those sorts of chances very often.
23rd minute goal. BF leads 2-0.

N. Higginson chips a ball ahead into the box for Thomas, LCP concedes the throw. Throw-in headed away by LCP.
LCP wins a corner kick. 6 to take it. Good ball. Keeper jumps to push it away...ball's loose in the six...it's a goal! 34th minute. Scramble for it and I think it went off the woodwork and went over the line before bouncing out.

Teams raring to go, even before the 20 minute half time clock winds out. We're underway!

Thomas attacks down the right for BF, beats a couple people, inside the box from point blank range...and I think the keeper got a touch and it hits off the post and out for a corner. BF corner, goes to Thomas at the top of the box, she pops a high shot way up in the air and it goes over the goal for a goal kick.

Thomas again beats a few defenders. Could've passed it left, takes it toward goal herself, shoots from a tight angle, keeper bobbles the save but gets on top of it.
56th minute, still 3-1.
