SEWELL -- Gloucester Tech could not have hoped for a better Senior Day game.

The Cheetahs unleashed a barrage of shots on the way to a 9-0 victory over Salem on Monday.

The game saw every senior who played put one in the back of the net. The only senior not to score was injured Syd Coleman.

By halftime the score was 4-0.

“It was the senior game, so all the girls were pretty eager to go out and get a win today,” GCIT coach Alicia Kavlunas said.

The first goal came just after kickoff, when Breanna Frederico decided to put one on net from about 20 yards out, five yards off the left sideline.

“As soon as it left my foot I knew it was going in," Frederico said. “It felt pretty awesome.”

Center midfielder Haley Evans was able to score as well, but not as easily. She came out firing, but her early shots were off target. Eventually, she pulled them closer to the goal and put one in.

“I had a little bit of adrenaline in that first half. I really wanted to get one in,” Evans said. “Finally, I just settled down and played my game and got one off.”

Coach Kavlunas hopes this will be a breakout game for her offense.

“We work a lot on finishing,” Kavlunas said. “That’s our main focus because that’s our biggest weakness.”

Kyla Fellon, Samantha Preis, Caitlin Hill, Haley Devenport, Melissa Peel, Shana McCusker and Cheyenne Zubec all joined in on the scoring. Zubec’s goal capped the scoring and came after she had various other attempts.

“She’s never up top, so most of the time she doesn’t have the opportunity to score,” Kavlunas said.
