The Kamiak Knights were up against Woodinville on rainy night at Pop Keeney Stadium in Bothell for this "Winner to State" playoff match.  The KHS fans were out in full force to support their team  :)   Woodinville was strong-quick to the ball, fast and skilled.  They scored an early goal-a great shot that sailed over Sr. goalkeeper Tana Foster's head out of her reach.   Kamiak had scoring opportunities but were unable to finish.

Final score 0-1.  Woodinville advances to State.  The Lady Knights hang up their soccer cleats for the 2010 High School season.

 Congratulations on a fantastic season...

 We are very PROUD of every player on the team and thanks for a wonderful season!!

Jackson scored the first goal of the match.   Sr. Knight Cassidy Seckman was fouled...her sister, Freshaman Maddie Seckman took the free kick and nailed it right over the JHS keeper's head to even the score 1-1.

Second half...Jackson was awarded a PK for a foul in the box.  Sr. GK Tana Foster made the save!!  Go Tana !!   Sr. Rachel Rinke scored the 2nd goal for the Knights with the assist going to Jr. Lauren Luke.  Unfortunately, Jackson answered back and tied the score 2-2 to end regulation play.

 Again, no score in two overtime periods.  AGAIN-PK's to decide the winner.  Soph. Emma Makela stepped in to goal for the Knights.  The keeper change proved to be a good decision by coach Beth Stewart...Emma was on.  Jackson perhaps was confused and distracted ny the change?   Sr. Tana Foster made the winning PK for the Lady Knights!!  WIN!!!  GO KNIGHTS

WOW...what a match this was.   The fans certainly got their money's worth.  This match was intense and fast paced from the first touch on the ball.  Both teams were playing to win.  Neither team was able to put a score on the board in the first half.

 Finally, on a corner kick served up by Sr. Rachel Rinke, Sr. Taylor Stanley  connectedwith a back kick that hit the net.   1-0 Kamiak.  Snohomish answered back on a counterattack evening the score at 1-1.   Rachel Rinke put in the second goal for the Knights to take the lead 2-1.  Sr. Cassidy Seckman scored the 3rd goal for a 3-1 lead.  2 minutes remained in the match....Snohomish did not give up!!  They pushed everyone forward, loaded the box and scored 2 goals in the final 2 minutes!!!   Regulation play ends tied at 3-3!!!   Two overtime periods were played scoreless.  PK's would decide the winner of this match.

Sr. Goalkeeper Tana Foster was in the cage for the Knights.   Snohomish was "on" not missing a kick.   The Kamaik Knights were not so lucky...Taylor Stanley pinged her kick off the crossbar and Megs Blocker went wide with a save by the Panther keeper.

 What a ride and a TOUGH LOSS!  :(((

Knights move to the losers bracket in hopes of advancing to the State Tournament.

The Knights travelled to Monroe for the 2nd time in two seasons.  The last time these teams met was in the 2009 playoffs in the pouring down rain and cold.  This league game was a much better evening...no rain and mild temperature.

 The teams battled back and forth the first half...Kamiak had MANY close shots that missed by inches...over the goal, around the goal ...everywhere but in the goal. Alyssa Drew scored for Monroe in the 32nd minute to give the Bearcats the lead.

Kamiak did not give up and continued to fight, outshooting Monroe 24 to 7, but just could not get the ball in the goal for a score.

Congtaulations Lady Knights on a VERY successful 2008 season!  You have much to be proud of.  The future is bright for this program.  With such a strong showing by a team dominated by underclassmen, the next few years should be a fun ride!   GO KNIGHTS!!

The Knights and Timberwolves know each other well.  Having played each other in pre-season and once again in league play, both coaches knew the strengths and weaknesses of their opponant.  The teams made the journey up to Oak Harbour and played on a neutral field.  The weather cooperated with some sun and no rain at game time.  There was a fairly strong winds blowing in which seemed to be a factor for the players.   The teams battled it out with neither Purple nor Green able to put the ball in the net.  AGAIN, a 0-0 tie at the end of regulation time.  Then ten minutes overtime and still no winner.   Again, PENALTY KICKS!   It took 8 kicks from each team to wrap up this match, and unfortunately Jackson came out on top.  Congratulations to the 2008 District 1 Champs- Jackson Timberwolves.

 Kamiak places a proud 2nd in District one for the 2008 season and advnces to the State Tournament.

Kamiak ends its 2008 conference season with a record of 6 wins, 2 losses and 1 tie.  This placed the team in 2nd place for the 2008 Wesco South 4A division.  

The 2008 season started slowly for the Knights.  Pre-season play ended with a record of 2 wins, 3 losses and 2 ties.  Three of the matches went to OT.  The 2008 Lady Knights are a very young team led by only 2 Sr's, Kendall Stanley (out with knee injury) and Carly Thomson.  The team has five Juniors, 9 sophomore's and 2 freshman.

Once regular seasopn play began, the Knight came alive!  The goal that had been eluding the team was found!  Knights scored 25 goals in 9 games.  The defense, led by keeper Tana Foster and anchored on the back line by Shelby Knowles & Paige Littrell, held strong and only allowed 9 goals in as many matches.

Congratulations Lady Knights!!!  Kamiak held the mighty first place Wesco North Lake Steven's to a 0-0 tie at Lake Steven's High School.  Tana Foster was busy in the cage, but kept her cool and made some beautiful saves.  The defense played the very physical Vikings aggressiveley.  Our offense had some oppurtunities to score but could not find the net.

The match went to overtime, but still no score.  The game would be decided, once again for Kamiak, by penalty kicks!  The Knights were prepared.  The past two seasons the Knights lost in the playoff's in PK's.  Coach Beth Stewart was determined that history not be repeated this year.  All four of our first kicks went into the net and Lake Steven's missed two!!!  Kamaik WINS and advances to the District 1 Championship game!!
