Hawks top Raiders, 6-1, in Anamosa
The West Delaware girls soccer team used some very good defense and took advantage of a number of scoring opportunities on offense to defeat the Anamosa Raiders 6-1 last Thursday night in Anamosa.

Hawk senior Megan Wessels got the Hawks on the board first with a goal at the 16:00 mark of the first half.

For the next 12 minutes the Hawks played mostly in the Raider defensive zone. Kayla Vaske scored at the 4:34 mark of the first half to up the Hawks lead to 2-0. She scored her second goal of the first half just three minutes later to give the Hawks a 3-0 half time lead.

The second half was much like the first with the Hawks dominating play throughout.

Alaina Davis and Emily Heffernen gave the Hawks a 5-1 lead.

Vaske then scored her third goal of the game with 5:08 remaining to give the Hawks an impressive 6-1 victory over the Raiders.
