Downsville girls rally to win tourney crown

Three second-half goals by Allison Townsend rallied Downsville from a three-goal halftime deficit to a 3-3 tie with Delhi, and the Eagles won a penalty-kick shootout, 4-2, to win their tournament Saturday.

Backup goalie Krista Baxter had the clinching goal in the shootout, which Downsville won, 4-2.

The game officially counts as a tie as the shootout only determined the tournament winner.

Jean Viafore, Eva-Rae Andrews and Katie Darling scored first-half goals for the Bulldogs.

"We moved a lot of people around and tried to become more offensive-minded," Eagles coach Burt Reed said.

Townsend scored 1:09 into the second half, receiving a throughball before maneuvering around two defenders for a goal. About 1:30 later, she curled a 20-yard shot from left wing inside the near post to make it 3-2.

With two minutes left in regulation, Baxter sent a cross into the box that Townsend finished from close range.

Downsville goalie Mary Early had left in the second half after injuring her head in a collision with a Delhi player. Reed said Early is day-to-day.
