Quincy soccer claims title at Oriole Classic; Coldwater races past Pennfield

QUINCY – The Quincy Oriole soccer program appears to be peaking at just the right time, as can be seen by their championship win at their home Quincy Invitational on Saturday in addition to their mercy win over Big 8 rival Bronson on Monday night.

Monday night the Orioles saw Laura Bostic score goal after goal, as Bostic poured in a total of five goals in the 12-0 win over the Vikings.

Quincy got on the board early with a goal from Claire Robertson at the three-minute mark with an assist from Sade Harges. Just four minutes later it was Harges getting in on the scoring with a goal of her own, on an assist from Kaylyn Brenner.

The Orioles rolled from there, as the Quincy defense locked down a promising Bronson lineup, not allowing a single shot on goal.

Bostic’s five goals led the way while MacKenzi Maynard and Abby Hinds added two goals each. Ella Bartell, Robertson, and Harges also contributed to the 12-0 mercy rule win.

On Saturday, the Quincy Orioles finished the day 2-0, taking wins over Bronson and Parchment to claim the title of the Oriole Classic as part of Quincy’s All Sports Day.

Game one saw Quincy defeat Bronson by the score of 10-0. Again, it was Bostic leading the way for the Orioles, netting three goals with one assist.

Also adding to the Orioles effort was Sami Hollenbaugh and Harges with two goals each while Adriana Welch, Maynard, and Tessa Henry each added a goal.

In the championship game of the tournament, it was Quincy scoring four unanswered goals to defeat Parchment 4-1.
