Ajax girls play Extreme-ly well in Ottawa

AJAX — The Ajax Extreme girls’ under-15 rep soccer team defeated the hosts to return home with the Ottawa Ice Breaker Tournament title. But, securing the championship in the nation’s capital wasn’t easy, with the Ajacians scoring a hard-fought and physical 1-0 victory over the Ottawa Internationals in the final. Shealyn Rox- burgh scored the game-winning goal. Rachel Calvelli recorded the shutout. The road leading to the champion- ship was challenging, with the Extreme playing six games over the weekend. In the semifinal, Ajax scored a 1-0 victory over the Cumberland Cobras. Roxburgh scored. The Extreme re- ceived outstanding defensive play from Riley Adams, Lauren Harlow, Teja Wil- liams, Stephanie Clarke, Nikaila Davis, Shannon Foster, Holly-Lynn Latimour, Emma Bulpin and Krystal Knopf. The Ajacians managed a 1-0 vic- tory over Ottawa in the quarter-finals. Again, Roxburgh booted the winner.
