Lions proving selves in tough conditions
They have played just four games, been hindered by an inconsistent practice schedule and have a roster littered with sophomores and freshmen.
Yes, the Linn-Mar girls soccer team is still working to find its way. Tuesday night's 2-0 win over Cedar Rapids Prairie on a raw, windy night at John Wall Field showed the good and bad for the 4-0 Lions.
The good has been a defense that has not been scored on in 346 minutes of play. The not so good has been the inconsistency that comes with youth combined with tough playing conditions.
"This was a good win for us under tough conditions against a very good Prairie team," said Linn-Mar Coach Steve Dickinson. "Our defense has been pretty solid. They work well together as a group."
