Seniors score to secure victory for Colonials

WHITEMARSH » When Plymouth Whitemarsh and Abington met earlier this season the Colonials lost a game that they led 1-0 at halftime.

They weren’t going to do it again Monday afternoon.

The Colonials doubled their one-goal lead in the second half and played shut-down defense to pick up a 2-0 Suburban One League American Conference win over the Ghosts at Plymouth Whitemarsh High School.

“That’s not happening again,” Colonials senior Annika Shula said of the halftime message.

THE SCORE

PW 2, Abington 0 Up next for PW: The Colonials are at Upper Dublin on Thursday. “We are not letting down. After that game we lost another game (where we led) 1-0 at halftime. We said this trend needs to stop and especially not to the same team, especially not this team when we were tied with them.”

Plymouth Whitemarsh (11-3, 9-2 SOL American) allowed three second-half goals in the Sept. 13 meeting that Abington won, 3-2. This time around, the Colonials barely allowed three scoring op
