Team of the week New Berlin Eisenhower
The Lions extended their unbeaten streak to 10 with four wins. Senior midfielder Lauren Hernandez scored twice in the first half Thursday to help the team hand Classic 8 leader Muskego its first loss of the season, 2-1. The next day Eisenhower defeated Waterford, which is undefeated in the Southern Lakes, 5-0, as Hernandez and senior midfielder Alex Nunag scored twice and senior midfielder Taylor Rinzel recorded two assists. The shutout was the third of the week for the Lions, who beat Cudahy, 11-0, last Monday and Pius XI, 10-0, Tuesday. The victories came one week after Eisenhower tied Woodland rival Shorewood, 2-2, and defeated North Shore leader Homestead, 2-0.
