MARSHFIELD – Jenna Baumann and Katelyn Abbiehl scored within a minute of each other late in the first half to lift D.C. Everest to a 3-0 win over Marshfield in a Wisconsin Valley Conference girls soccer game Monday at Heiting Community Stadium at Marshfield High School.

The game was scoreless through 36 minutes before Baumann scored. Abbiehl added another goal, on an assist from Katie Schultz, less than a minute later and Everest took the 2-0 lead into halftime.

Baumann added another goal, on an assist from Jenna Check, seven minutes into the second half to finish off the scoring.

D.C. Everest won its fourth-straight game to start the Wisconsin Valley Conference season and are now 4-2 overall and 4-0 in the Valley. Marshfield drops to 4-5 and 2-3 in the conference.

Payton Bremer had seven saves in goal for Marshfield. Makenna Kampmann saved all five shots on goal from D.C. Everest.

“Again we took Abby Ongna and had her mark Jenna Bauman, one of the top players in the entire state, and Abby did an incredible job,” Marshfield coach Steve Lindner said. “She made Jenna work and turned her away so many times and when Jenna got off a shot, Payton Bremer came up big with so many huge saves for us. It was Payton’s 1st varsity start and if not for one little miscue she was outstanding for the Tigers. She really gained some added trust with the coaching staff with her performance tonight.”

D.C. Everest will play at Wisconsin Rapids (2-0 WVC) on Thursday. Marshfield is off until it hosts Tomah on Saturday at 11 a.m.
