Hendersonville advances to State Quarter Final Game

Hendersonville High School in Hendersonville, Tennessee is the home of Commando and Lady Commando Soccer. Highly regarded as one of the Region's premier High School Soccer programs. We welcome all our visitors...
Tonight's match-up would send one of the two teams on to the Region 5-AAA final game, the other team would have to wait until next year! The later would just not fit into our Lady Commando's plan, and an early exit would be unthinkable. Rossview brought with them a very determined group of young ladies and hung tight for the majority of the first half, but in the end Hendersonville offensive attack was just to much for the Lady Hawks. Six different players (Anthony, Govea, Sanchez, Gonsewski, Foutch and Gregory) accounted for tonight's seven goals. Thursday evening, Hendersonville travels to Clarksville High School to play for the title of Region 5-AAA champions.
Marcela Sanchez, MVP
Tonight's District 9-AAA semi-final game found the Lady Commandos on the right side of a 4-1 final score vs. Wilson Central. Hendersonville advances to the District Finals game to be played against Beech High School. Goals tonight came by virtue of Melissa Govea and Marcela Sanchez (3)
Tonight's win against the Green Wave of Gallatin puts the Hendersonville Lady Commandos in first place in regular season District 9AAA play with a perfect 6-0 record and it gives a much deserved bye in first round play in the District Tournament which begins on Saturday at Smyrna High School. For the first 28 minutes of tonight's game, Hendersonville's five shots on goal were for naught for they were skillfully deflected, stopped or frustrated by Gallatin's keeper, but with 12:31 left in the first half the fireworks started as Melissa Govea's netted herself the first of her three tonight. Following suit was Marcela Sanchez as she herself had yet another hat trick and as in games past, Whitney Salley complimented with the final score of the night.
For the first 24 minutes of tonight's game, Smyrna's outstanding keeper, kept scooping up each of the many attempts by the Lady Commandos to net the first score, until Marcela Sanchez found herself the recipient of the first of her four goals, a personal best, with 15 minutes left in the first half. At the break, Hendersonville's lead was a slim 2-0, not a comfortable place to be considering that this worthy opponent's pressure was relentless throughout tonight's contest. With the score already at four to nothing, Whitney Salley contributed the final goal of the game.
