Hattieville’s Iaisha Dyer substituted for Sylvanna Barrow, and Felicia Gillett moved forward but the Caye Caulker girls remained on the attack as Angi Lima passed to Josepha Enriquez who centered to find Lillian Joseph for the second goal and the 2-1 lead.

The Hattieville girls won 2 more free kicks, but Estrada sent both tries outside the sticks. Caye Caullker won a 3rd goal when Stephanie Duarte put the finish on a long lob forward from Lima.

The Caye Caulker girls will be hunting for the 2nd win in Game 2 at the MCC Grounds on Sunday, November 27, to secure a berth in the finals.
