It was another victory for the Conway Christian soccer Lady Eagles (4-2) Thursday against Mountain View, 6-1.

This win moves the Lady Eagles one win away from qualifying for a state tournament berth.

Sumerlin Criswell and Caysie Williams led the scoring with two goals each, followed by Anna Cain and Christina DenHartog with one apiece.

“We have come a long way this season, and we just have some really great athletes," Conway Christian coach Ancil Lea said. "This season we have some of the best athletes we have ever had. I’m really proud of the effort they put forth.

“One of the things remarkable is that we only have 12 girls, so we only have one sub. Most of them play the entire game. I have never had such a small team, but they have the most heart. We are going to make state with just 12 girls.”

The Lady Eagles will play again Thursday, May 5 against St. Joseph.
