Greencastle-Antrim 1, Gettysburg 0: The Blue Devils’ defense was up to the task Monday night and the offense did just enough to create a Mid Penn Colonial victory on the road.

Greencastle raised its record to 10-3-1 (9-1-1 MPC), while the Warriors are now 7-6-1 (6-6-1 MPC). The teams tied 2-2 in an earlier meeting.

The difference on the scoreboard happened in the first half when the Blue Devils were awarded a penalty kick and Callie Izer stepped up and scored the goal.

Greencastle goalkeeper Lexi Nelson made 4 saves to earn the shutout, her 7th of the season.

“It was physical game for both sides,” G-A coach Jamie Coy said.

Gettysburg 4, Greencastle-Antrim 1: The Blue Devils ran into a tough customer in the Warriors, trailing just 1-0 at the half, but ended up falling 4-1 in a Mid Penn Colonial match at Kaley Field on Monday night.

Gettysburg (14-1, 12-1 MPC) out-shot Greencastle (4-10, 4-8 MPC), 20-6.

“We controlled play in the first half, but yet another injury for us forced some changes,” G-A coach Tim Carey said. “We continue to get younger on the field, but that is not a bad thing. There are right spots at both outside back positions with Jesse Fye and Caleb Noll.”

Eli Christophel scored the Blue Devils’ goal, with an assist going to Cooper Noblit.

Carey said, “Joey Lofton had a really nice game in goal, with several quality saves (he had 10).”
