The North Allegheny girls’ soccer team earned its third consecutive victory and fourth straight shutout with a 3-0 triumph over the Norwin Knights on Saturday afternoon at Newman Stadium.
Following a scoreless first half, the Tigers’ consistent pressure throughout the game paid off in the second half with a trio of goals. The first came courtesy of junior Kieran Shannon just 1:15 into the second half, assisted by junior Rosalia Varlotta, for a 1-0 lead. Shannon struck again eight minutes later, assisted by Emma Schupansky, to increase the NA advantage to 2-0. For her two-goal effort, Shannon was named the Wright Automotive Player of the Game.
