Glacier girls tie Hellgate; boys fall
MISSOULA — Missoula Hellgate is a soccer power and the Rattlesnake Fields are a tough place for opponents, so Glacier’s girls feel pretty good about Thursday.
Midway through the second half, Emmery Schmidt drove the game-tying goal home off a feed from Emelia Remley, and the Wolfpack hung on for a 1-1 draw with the Knights.
Earlier in the day the Glacier boys fell to Hellgate, 3-0.
“Certainly Hellgate is the team to beat in our section,” second-year Glacier girls coach Doug Mello said. “It’s the first time we’ve gotten a decent result against them in my two years.”
Mello credited keeper Aerin Todd, for starters.
“She made a number of big saves to keep us in the game,” he said. “Along with Reese Ramey, our center-back — she was instramental in defending. She had a standout match, as did Amelia Remley.”
Hellgate was State AA runnerup last season.
