Bainbridge suffered a tough 3-2 defeat against Holy Names Academy in the Spartans’ first game in the Metro League girls soccer tournament earlier this week.

The Spartans took an early lead on a goal in the 12th minute by Natalie Vukic on a pass from Celia Story.

The Crusaders evened the score in the 31st minute, but Bainbridge moved in front again two minutes later when Vukic passed to Riley Gregoire for a goal in the 33rd minute.

Holy Names then scored two goals in the second half, in the 52 minute and in the 66th minute, to escape with the win.
