Lady Jaguars' soccer season comes to an end

Valley Center’s varsity girls soccer team boasted solid play from a team full of underclassmen this season, and the Lady Jaguars took advantage of their youth and skill to dominate their opening round game in the CIF Division IV playoffs this season.
The Lady Jags cranked up the offense and never let up on defense to cruise to a 7–0 win over Mountain Empire on Wednesday in the first round of the post-season.
The Heredia sisters combined for eight points in the game, as Melina scored four goals and had an assist, while Vanessa scored a goal and had two assists.
Midfielder Hannah Sanders added a goal and two assists, while Julia Stone scored a goal and both Kelly Hagadorn and Leina Villamez had an assist.
In goal, Taylor Yates made two saves to preserve the shutout.
But the Lady Jaguars couldn’t find the offense they needed in the quarterfinals, as they suffered a 2–1 loss to Francis Parker on Saturday.
Melina Heredia scored another goal on an assist from Sanders, while Yates made six saves in a valiant effort in goal to finish out the season.
Valley Center ends the year with a 11–7–2 overall record.
