4/12/12: Stampede off to solid start


The Stampede had a win, a loss and a tie this past weekend at Norcal's Playdate #2 in Stockton.  Down 0-1 in the first game against Manteca, Jordan Davis scored from the right side on an assist from Lily Byrne to tie the game.  After a second-half penalty, Manteca was back on top, 2-1.  However, the Stampede came back to finalize the tie after Jordan Davis netted her second goal of the match on a breakaway.  Goalkeeper Alex Hanna made key saves all game long.  Game 2 matched the Stampede against Sac United who came away with the victory, 3-1.  Yasmeen Dmeiri scored late with a towering drive from outside the 18.  The Stampede found their stride again in the final game, beating Elk Grove 4-3.  Jordan Davis pounded in 3 more goals, two on assists from Anne Ayotte (one being a corner).  Ayotte found the net herself on an assist from Byrne.  Great defense included tough play from Emily Speakman, Alex Hanna and Sophie Karperos.
