Jackson beats Shorecrest 1-0 in defensive battle

SHORELINE – What’s the No. 1 thing that a team can do to make a coach happy? Give it your all and leave everything out on the field no matter the outcome.

So even though Jackson defeated Shorecrest 1-0 in Wesco South action Tuesday, Scots head coach Mindy Dalziel couldn’t have been happier with her team and the effort they gave.

“We took risks and just played a very hard fought game,” Dalziel said. “I’m really impressed with the effort on both sides.”

The Timberwolves’ lone goal came on a throw in by junior Kristi Kingma to Megan Bolmes, who flicked it by Shorecrest keeper Caroline Towles and into the net in the 22nd minute.

Both Towles and Jackson goalie Dee Wood each recorded four saves in what was deemed a very defensive-oriented game by Dalziel.

“It was a fantastic game to watch from a coach’s point of view,” added Dalziel. “It’s really fun to play against (Jackson), not because of a huge league rivalry, but because both teams always have top programs.”
