NWAC Soccer: Lower Columbia leaves Canadians crying in their poutine | Sports

The Lower Columbia College women’s soccer team continued to be like butter, remaining on a roll over the weekend by defeating Douglas College of British Columbia 3-0, Saturday, in a non-league tilt at the Northlake Field.

The contest served as a home opener for the Red Devils following an undefeated four game road trip of scrimmages and non-league contests.

LCC got all the advantage they would need early on when the Royals surrendered an own goal. Adalie Schierscher set up the score with a corner kick that wound up deflecting off a Douglas defender for the goal.

The Red Devils posted a goal the old fashioned way in the 43rd minute when Nataija Blaylock powered a shot into the upper-left section of the net from more than 30 feet out.

Ellie Seekings rounded out the LCC scoring with a 55th minute, intercepting a pass and then driving a shot home from 25 feet out.
