Freshman calms frustrations PDF Print E-mail

By HENRY S. CONTE

TIPP CITY - It was four years of frustration for the Tippecanoe seniors — but it was a freshman that made it all go away.
 
Sarah Harmer led Tippecanoe to a 2-0 win over Troy at Tipp City Park Monday, scoring both goals and helping keep the pressure on the Troy defense throughout the match.
 
“Our freshman played strong,” Tippecanoe coach Heather Thompson said. “She has shown up.”
 
And she has made Thompson look pretty smart with the decision to start a freshman on varsity.
 
Not only did Harmer score twice against Troy, but she also scored what proved to be the game winner against Butler in Tipp’s first match Saturday.
“We didn’t even know if she was going to play tonight,” Thompson said. “She hit a ball with her head in warmups and she hit her head really hard. We sat her the first 15 minutes.”
 
But after that, Harmer proved she was just fine.
 
Tipp’s first goal came at the mid-way point of the first half, when Harmer broke away from the Troy defense on a long free kick and put one in to make it 1-0.
 
While that would be enough, Harmer added to the tally in the second half at the 35:20 mark, popping a ball up over the outstretched hands of the Troy keeper.
 
Meredith Budding and McKensie Logan — a called-up JV player — each earned assists in the game.
 
“We had to call up two JV players because we only have 15 healthy varsity players right now,” Thompson said. “The girls were working through injuries and they earned this.”
