Yahoo Sports Kansas high school girls soccer scores: Kapaun sets up title rematch with Carroll
The fiercest rivalry in Wichita will decide which girls soccer team advances to the Class 5A quarterfinals.
Kapaun Mt. Carmel upended No. 7 seed Emporia in a 4-0 road victory on Tuesday to advance to a regional championship game, where No. 2 seed Bishop Carroll will be waiting after a 10-0 win over Salina Central. The Holy War postseason matchup is slated for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Carroll.
A first-half goal from Ellie Knipp proved to be the game’s only goal for the first 70 minutes on Tuesday in Emporia. It wasn’t until the Crusaders (9-7-1) poured in three goals in the final 10 minutes, scored by Nora Smith, Stella Fury and Mason Palace, that they pulled away for upset win by seed.
Carroll (15-2) won, 2-0, in the regular-season meeting against its east-side rivals on April 29.
That won’t be the only feisty regional final in 5A, as Andover Central (14-2-1) is set to host Hays (11-6) and Andover (14-2-1) will host Goddard Eisenhower (13-3-1) in a regular-season meeting that produced fireworks in a 5-4 win by the Trojans on March 28 and then a high-level, 1-1 draw on May 2. Title favorite Maize South (17-0) also hosts Valley Center (10-7) on Friday.
Thanks to a stunning win by No. 14 seed Lawrence Free State over Dodge City and an upset win of its own, No. 11 seed Derby (9-7-1) is in line to host a regional championship game at the 6A level. The Panthers topped Topeka 2-0 on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Maize (12-4-1) will host Wichita North (12-5) in a 6A regional final and Wichita East (10-7) will travel to top-seed Washburn Rural (14-3) for another final.
At the 4-1A level, Wichita Classical (14-2-1) is set to host Trinity Academy (8-8) in a meeting between private-school powers, while Rose Hill (11-3-1) hosts Topeka Hayden (10-6-1), Augusta (11-5-1) hosts Wichita Independent (10-5-1) and McPherson (11-5-1) hosts Buhler (11-5-1).
