The Rockmart Yellowjackets had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. Their defense stepped up to hand Bowdon a 2-0 shutout on Thursday. After a 8-0 finish the last time they played, Rockmart and Bowdon decided to play a little more cautiously this time around.
Rockmart was led to victory by the tag-team duo of
Sierra Alonso and
Makayla Fortenberry, who scored both of Rockmart's goals.
Rockmart will be playing at home against North Murray at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. As for Bowdon, they will get a bit of extra time to process the loss as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Mt. Zion at 5:30 p.m. on February 27th.
