McNary Celtics Girls Soccer 0-5 South Eugene

South Eugene handed McNary a 5-0 defeat Tuesday in a non-league girls soccer matchup played in Eugene, dropping the Celtics of Keizer, Oregon, to 0-4 on the season. McNary, which competes in the Central Valley Conference (6A), traveled outside the league for this contest against South Eugene, a program from the Oregon Coast League region of the state. The Celtics were unable to generate an offensive answer as South Eugene controlled the match from start to finish, finishing with a five-goal margin. The shutout loss reflects the challenge of non-league scheduling, which often pits programs against opponents with different competitive styles and conference backgrounds, giving McNary useful experience heading into league play. The Celtics have work to do before Central Valley Conference competition intensifies. McNary will look to regroup and find its footing in the coming week, with the coaching staff likely to focus on defensive structure and creating chances on the attacking end.
