have the central catholic team taking the field and belmont coming on as well getting ready to kick off the start of this first game in the playoffs  ill be taking control with the pass back one of their star players in memory is taking the ball excellent path up to the forward line strong save here by central catholic and you're going to notice that a corner has been called so a corner is called whenever there is a fall inside of the circle so belmont can have as many players often simply no and the opposing team is only allowed to have four in their defensive net their manger of their players must go back to the fifty yard line now you see them coming into the play great save and corner to is called this is an excellent opportunity for the office of team to gain advantage in the circle scene that they have a significant amount of players against the four defenders the ball must go outside of the circle first be put back into play great shot central catholic executing on some great passes here great stick work going that ball right into their great save belmont takes the lead early in the game a few minutes into the first half they are on the scoreboard in one nothing belmont that said executing great pressure taken the ball raid up the midfield take an excellent control and marie one of the star players here in belmont know only does and mary have great stickwork she also distributes the ball very well belmont putting excellent pressure in their office of zone to keep the ball down here looking for another scoring opportunity the ball had to travel five yards here before they can put it into the circle and we have another corner as you can see belmont does a great job drawing those corners consistently giving them opportunities to score corner number four of the game great defense there but the pressure remains on belmont does not give up they are very resilient always going right back after it they are peppering that goalie with shots and freshman morgan chase put it back in the circle for belmont could stick work and execution of passes from central catholic and molly number fourteen taken up all the way showing her great defensive skills think there has been a force in the defensive zone all year long keeping that up in the playoffs central catholic attempting to execute and memory takes it away back into central catholic couple of follows their fantastic pass and a great save when the ball goes out on the defensive zone from the defensive end it is a long hit now belmont before they can bring the ball into the circle will have to carry that ball five yards excellent job to bring that ball into open space so you notice that belmont has been using a lifted ball from the sideline as long as the ball is lifted into open space and is not into congested territory that ball can be lifted strong side in off the foot of belmont central catholic's ball strong passing from belmont just missed that shot belmont taking full control of the game here in the first top having multiple scoring opportunities looking to put another one in the net belmont taking a lot of strong shots in the top of the circle looking for those rebounds down low strong pressure from the office of line of belmont when there is a side in or there's a fall the other team gets the ball the opposite team must give five yards when they have some opposite team does not get five yards they get to bump it up another five and another corner here for about a month emery stickwork is creating a lot of scoring opportunities here for the belmont team great save there be other team so what you see here is emery had low is taking a stroke she has one opportunity to score against the goalie for central catholic so not sure exactly what happened but the ball may have been caught in the goalie strong defense here from molly fair fantastic look from emory to freshman morgan chase connecting on another pass right through the center line keeping that ball in play is freshman morgan chase drawing a nother corner for belmont belmont has been challenging central classics goalie consistently throughout the first half central catholic school lee has been displaying excellent skills down there saving a lot of strong shots from belmont fantastic pass and the advantage goes to belmont there was a foot on central catholic central catholic working hard to try to get the ball out of their defensive and in head coach jeff smith and her thirteenth year leading the lady marauders has called a time out coming from their time out belmont is taking the field followed by central catholic the advantage here goes to central catholic an excellent perception of the field connecting on multiple passes back and forth to another looking for a scoring opportunity double team there for belmont getting the ball back connecting into the middle just to the right of the net we have just over ten minutes left here in the first half is clearly eager to put another one in the net in this first half sixteen yard hit coming out of the circle here for central catholic belmont looking to have strong defense and then keep it in their side packing their own central catholic it will be advantage belmont strong hit connecting up past a number seven looking to put that ball into the circle and drawing almost going to the corner just outside that circle but we do have a corner here it was inside the circle excellent another scoring opportunity here remained in control possession was so they'll have a long hit against the trouble five yard before going into that circle foot there on central catholic emery looking to put it into the center and another corner an excellent strategy from belmont where they are drawing corners to create an advantage for themselves in numbers up game excellent pass coming out central catholic get eight belmont foot with seven minutes remaining here in the first half we have home team belmont one and guess central catholic zero connecting a series of passes here central kept looking to bring that ball into belmont and she was outside of the circle taking that shot wide to the right of the net there it would be belmont ball coming out task look down the center in central catholic took control pressure there from belmont making them force it into their backfield looking to create a scoring opportunity yet belmont's strong defense is not letting that happen strong pressure there from mary power just under four minutes left here in the first half and central catholic just scored making it one one year with just over three minutes left in the first  eager to capitalize on one of the multiple scoring opportunities they have created in the first half and central catholic as hungary they just put one on and looking to do it again another shot here central catholic just wide to the right of the net good idea from emery in the backfield looking to capitalize and connect to morgan on the right side of the field to bring it up and cro great say they're from belmont and central catholic stepping up looks like central catholic has turned it on here in the last few minutes of this h and this game has taken on a whole new energy entering and our first corner of the game here for central catholic so now belmont will have to bring all the four of their players to the fifty yard line strong different there from belmont making sure that ball did not go in the net yet central capital have another opportunity year getting down to the one minute mark here in the first half now even if the time runs out the corner still stays in action so the team would still have the opportunity to finish out the corner even if the time did run out great save their from belmont and mary making sure that ball doesn't not get near her cage again twenty seconds left here in the first half end the first half tied one one
