Wade, Chirico pace Bombers to 5-1 win over Rockers
By The Nelson Daily Sports
Sarah Wade and Chiara Chirico each scored twice sparking the L.V. Rogers Bombers to a convincing 5-1 decision over the Stanley Humphries Rockers in West Kootenay Fieldhockey League action Wednesday afternoon at the Lakeside Pitch.
The game was a preview to the West Kootenay semi final set for Tuesday at Pass Creek in Castlegar.
The Bombers looked strong on the home pitch at Lakeside, scoring early and often.
Naomi Perkins scored the other goal for the Bombers.
“There was amazing mid field work by Allie Zondervan and Abbie Bourchier-Willans while keeper Tara Yowek was outstanding in the net,” said coach Val Gibson.
The winner of Tuesday’s semi final advances to meet the Rossland Royals in the West Kootenay Final Thursday (October 25) at Pass Creek.
The zone winner qualifies for the B.C. High School AA Fieldhockey Championships in Burnaby.
The loser plays a backdoor game into the provincials against Fraser Valley No. 2 in Kelowna October 30.
