Maggie LeBlanc leads PVHS in girls soccer win over Penquis

September 14, 2021

At Howland, Maggie LeBlanc scored two goals as the PVHS Howlers defeated Penquis of Milo 4-0.

LeBlanc scored her first goal just four minutes into the game, unassisted. The 1-0 Penobscot Valley lead would remain for the next 50 minutes of game play, into the second half.

Finally Ellie Austin gave the home team some breathing room, as she had a breakaway past the defensive line, and fired home an 18-yard yard shot into the left hand corner. The scoring was capped off by LeBlanc’s second of the night, as well as a goal from Rebecca Carson, both from Penalty Kicks.

Penobscot Valley’s Emilee Ireland turned back every shot she faced, as they improved to 4-0. Hope Lovell stopped 19 of 32 shots for the Patriots, who dropped to 1-3.
