FAIRMONT – All good things must come to an end and they did for the Buckhannon-Upshur Lady Bucs against the Fairmont Senior Polar Bears Thursday evening in Big 10 Conference action.
The Lady Bucs saw their seven-game winning streak come to an end but they were still able to earn a 1-1 draw with Fairmont Senior.
“We played a solid game and dominated possession for most of the game,” remarked Buckhannon-Upshur head coach Jason Piacente. “Despite not getting the win, it was a great all-around team effort.”
Tara Ashley sent in a corner kick that Maura Stark found the back of the net on to give Fairmont Senior a 1-0 lead in the 14th minute.
