Cardinal’s effort didn’t go unnoticed but it did go unrewarded in a 3-1 loss at Bristol on Monday.
The Huskies rebounded from a tough loss last week and put together a solid game but just couldn’t outscore the Panthers.
“The girls played well today,” Cardinal coach Vanessa Pintabona said. “After a rough game last Thursday, they got their confidence and energy back with the game against Bristol. A lot of great teamwork and individual play as well.”
Daisy Robinson scored Cardinal’s lone goal.
“When we initially switched Daisy Robinson to forward, it was to accommodate for an injured player,” Pintabona said. “Almost immediately, she scored our only goal of the game. It was an instant confidence boost for her and she amped up her energy for the rest of the game. I think Daisy is ready to make the most of her senior year.”
Madi Rosenberger assisted on the goal.
“Madi Rosenberger had a stellar game,” Pintabona said. “Some bad luck with a missed penalty kick but she played hard the entire game, assisting on our only goal and forcing Bristol’s defense to stay on their toes to keep our offense down. It’s obvious Madi knows how to play smart. She’s aware of everything going on around her and always looking for opportunities to set her teammates up for success.”
