Garrison racked up more big offensive numbers as the Warriors completed an undefeated regular season with two more victories last week.

Garrison, a sophomore, produced four goals and one assist in a 12-3 triumph against visiting Uwharrie Charter Academy. Summer Bowman was credited with five goals and three assists, Natalie Bowman posted two goals and one assist and Maggie Messner had a goal in that game.

Garrison followed that a day later with six goals and one assist in the 9-0 romp past host Providence Grove to conclude the Piedmont Athletic Conference portion of the schedule. Natalie Bowman’s two goals and Kara Comer’s one goal marked the other scoring.

The Warriors took a 19-0 record into the state playoffs. As the West Region’s No. 2 seed in Class 2-A, they were slated to meet visiting East Rutherford on Tuesday night.  

In the regular season, Wheatmore outscored its opponents by a combined score of 164-8.
