The Caronport Cougars girl soccer team's two goals against Central Tuesday bested their offensive record for the entire 2007 season.
Caronport lost 4-2 to Central, but the signs are there for a stronger presence in the Moose Jaw High School Soccer League action.
"I have lots of inexperience, but we're making progress," said Cougars coach Rod Appleby. "We played significantly better than we did in our first (exhibition) game so I'm optimistic."
The goals came for Caronport's Marie McCullough and are clearly a step in the right direction for the team. One of the goals was a low shot to the short side and the other was a direct shot from 25 yards out, high and over the goalkeeper into the net.
McCullough won't provide all of the offence this season, but Appleby said "she's going to be a key part of it. I've got a couple of other girls too that I hope can start taking shots and can put pressure on the keeper. I'm hoping that we have a stronger offence than we had last year."
The offence can be built on.
"We look at that as a measure of progress," Appleby said of being able to score against Central.
