The Hendersonville Standard has the story:
After playing to a 0-0 draw during their regular season match-up, Station Camp and Ellis entered Wednesday afternoon's Sumner County Middle School Girls Soccer League Championship Game with identical 7-0-1 records. Station Camp defeated White House 4-1 in their Semifinal matchup, while Ellis knocked off Rucker-Stewart 1-0 to advance to Wednesday's championship.
Station Camp kept battling and Laura Hendricks was finally able to knock one past Ellis's goalkeeper, Lilli Hawn, to cut the Ellis lead to 2-1 with just under 10 minutes to play. It was a fury until the final whistle, but Ellis's strong defense was able to hold off the Bison's offensive attack to secure the victory.
The Championship is the Cougars' third straight and sixth overall. Coach Kelsey Plummer stated after the game, "I'm so proud of my girls. They played their hearts out today. Station Camp is a very strong team, very well-coached, and it was a battle until the very end. It feels great to bring home another championship to Ellis!”
