Simon Kenton goalkeeper Makenna Doherty had a busy night guarding the net during her team’s 2-0 win over Notre Dame in girls high school soccer on Wednesday.

There were at least a dozen shots on goal the freshman had to handle, but she was able to post a shutout with the help of her teammates and the Pioneers came away with their first-ever victory over the Pandas.

“We worked really well together,” Doherty said of her team’s defensive effort. “That’s so important because they’re the ones who help me protect the goal.”

The Pioneers remained undefeated with their fourth shutout that pushed their record to 9-0-1. It was also the 100th career win for head coach Hillary Johnson, who has a 50-20-10 record in four seasons at Simon Kenton.
