The Stettler FC under-16 girls completed their soccer season last week with a win and a loss in playoff action.

In its final game last Thursday at West Stettler Park, Stettler lost 1-0 to Ponoka.

“It was a very exciting game and the girls played hard, but couldn’t come back from a very early Ponoka goal,” said Stettler manager Michelle Fisher.

In their other Central Alberta Soccer League playoff game, the Stettler girls topped Rocky Mountain House 2-1 last Tuesday at Lacombe. Nikyta Lachowsky and Lindsey McKinnon scored the Stettler goals.

Overall this season, Stettler’s under-16 girls lost just three of 22 games in regular-season, tournament and playoff action.

“They finished first overall in points after the league (schedule) was finished, but ended up second after the playoff games,” Fisher said.

“All in all, it was a very good season — they progressed very well and had a great time playing together.”
