Crater Comets Girls Soccer 2-1 Ashland

Crater's girls soccer team picked up a hard-fought road result Saturday, defeating Ashland 2-1 in a 5A-5 Southern Oregon Conference Hybrid matchup that gives the Central Point, Oregon program serious momentum heading into the final stretch of the season. The Comets, who entered the day at 4-6-4 overall, got the goals they needed to come away with three points in a competitive rivalry setting. Ashland made things interesting, pulling within one, but Crater's defense held firm to protect the lead and secure the win. The victory moves Crater to 5-6-4 overall and 3-1 in conference play, a record that puts the Comets squarely in the mix for a strong league finish. Road wins against conference opponents are never easy, and this one carries real weight as the regular season winds down. Crater will look to carry this confidence into their next outing and continue building on what is shaping up to be a meaningful late-season run.
