In a rare late season morning match the JETS avenged their only loss of
the season by defeating the Panthers 2-0. The Panthers controlled the tempo early but managed only two shots before the JETS regained control for the remainder of the first half. The JETS used crossing passes from the wings to pressure the goal and just before the half, Fatima was able to shoot one by the Panther's keeper. In the second half, the JETS continued to use effective team passing skills which led to ten shots on goal. Ten minutes into the half, Brooke was able to score on a long range shot, which provided the final margin. For the remainder of the game the JETS continued to pass the ball, effectively denying the Panthers any legitimate scoring opportunities.
The win vaulted the JETS into a first place tie with one regular season
game left to play.
