After an extremely difficult start to the season, things appear to be turning around for the Pella Christian girls soccer team; as was evident in the Lady Eagles 5-0 win at Centerville Monday night. Pella Christian put up all five of their goals by halftime – all by different players. Bri Warden had three assists, along with one of the goals. Defensively, Jalissa Morgan led the way with 23 stops for the Lady Eagles, who shut down the Big Red and required goalkeeper Jenna Roose to stop just two shots on the night. The Pella Christian girls soccer team is now 3-7 overall and hosts Oskaloosa tonight.
