Lania Hite got loose on a run down the left-hand side and scored for the second time in the first half at 22:10 to give Trigg the lead again at 2-1.
Fort Campbell’s Anna Allen tied it up again with a goal at the 32:00 to send the two teams into the break knotted up at 2-2.
As close as the opening half was, the second half belonged to the Lady Wildcats. Olivia Noffsinger scored on a free kick at 46:00 to put Trigg County ahead for good at 3-2. Lania Hite got the hat trick with a goal two minutes later to extend the lead to 4-2. Camryn Boone sealed the win with a goal at 67:30 to reach the final score of 5-2.
With the loss, the Lady Falcons fall to 1-5-1 on the season. Fort Campbell is set to be back in action Monday when they travel to University Heights.
