Pattonville Girls Move On In 2013 Despite Key Soccer Departures

The Pattonville Pirate Girls soccer took the pitch for the first time in the 2013 season Monday in a 2-0 win against Howell Central in a match played at Ft. Zumwalt East High School.

Kaely Fitterling and Ashanti Carey scored the Pattonville goals.

For the first time in years, the Pirate lineup doesn't feature names like Kailey Utley, Mikala McGhee, Kimberly and Kacie Hulse, who all graduated. The last time the Pirates were on the field in a heartbreaking loss to Cor Jesu in the 2012 state quarterfinal.

Pattonville Varsity Girls Head Coach Tom Iffrig talked to Patch about moving on without those veteran leaders and the challenge ahead.

We'll have a full profile on the team next week.
