The Hillsboro Lady Indians earned a South Central Ohio League win on Thursday night, winning their league opener at Wilmington’s Alumni Field with a 4-2 victory over the host Lady Hurricane.

HHS (1-0, 2-0-1) scored two goals in the first half, taking a 2-0 lead into the halftime break after the first 40 minutes of play.

The Lady Indians scored the first goal of the match early in the first half, at the 37:33 mark, with Hope Tira kicking the ball into the back of the net for the 1-0 advantage. The second Lady Indians goal came with 7:03 remaining on the first-half clock with Lillian Van Zant giving HHS a two-goal advantage.

In the second half, the score went to 2-1, with WHS scoring at the 18:40 mark. The score was then tied at Alumni Field with a Lady ‘Cane goal at the 13:45 mark of the second half.

That tied score lasted 21 seconds with Tira pushing the Lady Indians back ahead with a goal, leaving 13:24 remaining in the SCOL match. The final goal for good measure was scored by Callan Myers with 10 seconds on the clock, putting HHS ahead by two goals, plus taking away any chance for WHS to tie the match for a second time. 

There were no assists on any of the four HHS goals. HHS totaled six shots on goal in the win. Hillsboro keeper Riley Moberly totaled five saves in the match, including three in the first half.

The Lady Indians are scheduled to play on the road Tuesday night as they face the Clinton-Massie Lady Falcons with a 6:45 p.m. start time in SCOL play.
