Finally, A Blog Update

With the busy fall season happening, I haven’t gotten around to posting a blog update of games shot, but here comes one!

This past week I cleaned up the front page of viewthroughmylens.net be creating a separate high schools page with links to the Cloquet, Barnum, Carlton, Esko, and Duluth Northern Stars pages rather than having 5 separate links on the front page of the website.  Now you click the high schools link and choose which school you want to look for pictures of.

I shot a bunch of CEC Lumberjacks boys soccer early in their season and a couple Cloquet girls soccer, including their rivalry matchup 2-1 loss at Esko/Carlton.

Cloquet Girls Soccer Downed By Hermantown

The Lumberjacks and Hawks had a tough battle in Cloquet, September 25, 2010. Hermantown scored the lone goal of the game just 2:01 into the first half on a Melissa Madison shot on goal that got under a diving Kenzie Rathe. Both teams went back and forth the next 78 minutes but neither could find the back of the net. The Jacks hit a post, a crossbar, and then were robbed by Hawks goalkeeper Alexa Peterson, all in a span of about 20 seconds in the second half. Cloquet's Rachel Rowenhorst got control of the ball behind a challenging goalkeeper, but the ball was knocked away by Hermantown's Mackenzie Herzig. Also in the half Hermantown put a shot off the crossbar of the Cloquet net, then headed a ball that just hit the top of the crossbar and rolled down behind the net, and Cloquet had a free kick in close to the Hawks' net, but misfired on the play.

The Lumberjacks and Eskomos once again renewed their soccer rivalry at Bromberg Field in Cloquet, August 31, 2010. Esko/Carlton jumped on the Jacks early, with goals by Alyssa Rodlund and Caitlin Lilly, notching a two goal lead in the first 13 minutes of play. A header by Cloquet's Carley Esse beat Eskomo goaltender to cut the lead to 2-1, which was the score at halftime. The Lumberjacks tied the game at two on a Kristi Konietzko goal early in the second half. The game was tied until the 28th minute of the game, when Lilly was awarded, and buried, a penalty kick in front of Lumberjack goaltender Kaitrin Rathe for the 3-2 final score.
