“We did some aggressive pressing and some top-quality finishing,” Chambersburg coach Paul Unruh said. “Our short, two-touch passing game, along with relentlessly winning the ball up high were the key to success. Credit to the girls — they really wanted this one.”

The Trojans (3-3, 2-2 MPC) opened the scoring when Kadence Decker brought down a flick-on header from Bree Paetow and slotted it into the goal. Shortly after that, Katy Weller took a free kick from 25 yards out and found the back of the net with a strong shot.

Carlisle made it 2-1 before halftime, but Chambersburg stretched its lead early in the second half. Decker sent a shot in off the bottom of the crossbar from 20 yards out, and Malia Cramer hit the side of the net with a slicing left-footed shot.
