MONROE - After senior Sami Curtis' goal in the first 10 minutes of Tuesday's game, the Monroe High School girls soccer team had defending WIAA Division 2 state champion Oregon on the ropes for the first half. However, Oregon's Makenna Fanning had one goal and one assist, and the Panthers scored three times in the second half en route to a 3-1 win over the Cheesemakers at Honey Creek Park. "We talked a lot about how we were going to play this game by staying well ahead of the ball and staying connected," Monroe coach Miriam O'Neill said.
