Friday night's state playoff scores in basketball and soccer.
Staff and wire reports GLENDALE — All week, Phoenix Northwest Christian’s 11 returning girls soccer players wore their 3A state championship rings from a season ago. They wore them to class. They wore them to practice. And finally, on Friday night, they wore them to Glendale High School, where the Crusaders played Sabino in this year’s state championship.For Northwest Christian coach Jeff Penzone, it’s a dream ending.
Eight minutes later, Northwest Christian bounced back when sophomore Cassidy Garberding got on the end of Tatum Berkwitt’s low-driven cross. That set the tone for a back-and-forth half that ended 2-2, with neither side able to wrestle full control. “We have a confidence in our team and once we're ahead, the other team's just done,” Johannes said. “So after the second goal I had, the header, I was like, we're done. We're gonna lock them down.”
“Just stupid ridiculous how well she plays,” Penzone said. “… She put the ball in the back of the net at times when we really, really needed it.” Flowing Wells beat ninth-seeded Ironwood Ridge 56-45 in an all-Southern Arizona Class 5A girls quarterfinal matchup. The top-seeded Caballeros will host No. 4 Gilbert on Wednesday night.
