    Stars finish season undefeated
    The Stars looked to close out the season hosting the East Islip Lady Celtics at Burns Park. Since the Stars had already clinched the Division Championship with the win Friday night against Lindenhurst, they were just looking to keep the undefeated season intact. They would be without Shannon and Nicole this clear and cool November morning.

    East Islip would get on the board first after the Stars were called for a handball in their own box. The ensuing Penalty Kick would just get under Kara’s outstretched hand as she dove to her right to try to make the save. The Stars would tie the score after Amanda was able to chase down a through ball down the left side of the field. She was able to stop and turn back to her right, sending a beautiful cross into the box where Erica was waiting to tap it in to tie the score at 1-1. The Stars would score again after Madison sent a ball through the defense and found a streaking Amanda who cut across the box from the left to the right. As she crossed in front of the keeper she quickly shot back to the right of the keeper to find the back of the net and give the Stars a 2-1 lead. The Stars almost made it 3-1 just before halftime as Erica found a wide pen Madison in the box but the ball got caught under Madison’s cleat and by the time she was able to get the shot off, the keeper was in place to make the save.

    In the second half, the Stars defense clamped down, turning away any attempt made by East Islip. Over a stretch of about 10 minute, the defense line of Kristen, Courtney, Sydney and Nicolette shut down East Islip completely, not allowing a shot on goal while defending 5 Corner Kicks by the Lady Celtics. The final blow came as the second half was ending. East Islip passed the ball back to the keeper who shanked the clearing kick. The ball went right to Taylor, who only had the keeper to beat, sending the ball into the upper left corner to give the Stars a 3-1 victory and finish the season undefeated. The Stars would finish with 8 wins, 0 losses and 1 tie with 4 shutout victories during that stretch. They would outscore their opponents 25-5 as they go on to win the Girls U15 Division 1 Championship.



    Stars clinch Division with shutout
    The Stars traveled to Lindenhurst on Friday night to play a make up match against the Lindenhurst Tidal Wave. The Stars would be without Shannon for this match and would get off to a slow start. The Tidal Wave played most of the first half in the Stars end of the field yet could not capitalize as the Stars made it difficult for the Tidal Wave players to get off a good shot. There were 5 corner kicks given to Lindy by the Stars yet, Lindy was not able to make them count. The only shot the Stars would get in the first half was a free kick by Madison which sailed over the crossbar. The score would remain 0-0 going into the half after Kara made a diving save off of the best shot Lindenhurst would take in the match, diving to her right and getting her hand on the ball just as it was heading into the corner of the net.

    In the second half, the Stars would begin to put great passes together. The tide began to turn as Madison and Shelby began to take control of the middle of the field. They began getting great through balls out to the wings as the Stars began to apply pressure. The Stars would finally capitalize after Taylor drove down the left side and found Erica on the right. As Taylor's pass led Erica towards the net, the Lindenhurst keeper, who was playing very agressive all night, tried to make a play on the ball. Erica was able to put a touch on the ball and get the ball around the rushing keeper, knocking the ball into the empty net to give the Stars a 1-0 lead. That score would remain intact as the Stars clamped down and refused to give up the lead. The Tidal Wave would manage just a couple of shots on goal as time was running out but Kara was able to suck each one up giving her 4 shutouts for the season and clinching the Division Championship for the Stars. The Stars have 1 more remaining match against East Islip on Sunday at home.


    Stars Players selected to State ODP Team
    The Stars will be well represented on both the 1996 and 1995 State ODP team as the following players were selected this year: Nicole, Shelby, Sydney and Kara on the 1996 team and Erica on the 1995 team. Please extend a congratulations to these players as we are sure they will all make us proud.
