West Orange HS Girls Soccer Team Captures Super Essex Title

WEST ORANGE, NJ — Make that two in a row for West Orange.

Last weekend – for the second consecutive year – the West Orange High School Girls Soccer team captured the Super Essex County Tournament title, notching a 5-0 victory against Glen Ridge at Caldwell High School.

School administrators offered a quick recap of the action:

“West Orange midfielder Sidda Mitchell set the team up for an early lead with a goal, following up with an assist on a goal by Anna Deer. Deer and Hannah Amoyaw assisted and Jaiden Schultz kicked in the third goal in the second half. Aminata Diop and Madison Cyrus added a goal apiece. Schultz brought in the last goal of the game, placing No. 3 West Orange on top and shutting out No. 12 Glen Ridge.”

"The girls played well throughout the entire tournament, only conceding one goal in four games," head coach Sean Devore said.

"The coaching staff is very proud," he added, noting that the team will be turning their focus to the state tournament beginning on Wednesday.

"We would like to thank the West Orange community for their support of the girls throughout the entire tournament," Devore added.

West Orange stands 5-1-1 in SEC American Division regular play.
