NILES – A pair of goals in each half lifted the Brandywine varsity soccer team to a 4-0 victory over visiting Granger (Ind.) Christian Wednesday afternoon.
Sam Low scored both goals for the Lady Bobcats in the first half to stake Brandywine to its 2-0 lead.
In the final 40 minutes, Alexa Perry and Katie Smallwood, who traded positions in goal, scored the last two goals for the Lady Bobcats.
Low scored in the 32nd and 40th minute of the opening half.
Perry scored 10 minutes into the second half and Smallwood, after switching out of her goalkeepers uniform, scored in the 68th minute.
Brandywine got off 16 shots on goal to Granger Christian's 1.
Tiffany Rensberger was credited with 11 saves. Smallwood and Perry did not have to make a stop.
"It was a pretty good game," Brandywine coach Evan Winkler said. "We got to work on some things, really work on our passing. I thought we strung them together. We had some good looks even though they really packed it in down there."
