Sam Woods has garnered five goals and has one assist under her name. The assist was notable as it came in the regional championship in February. The Benjamin School Girls’ soccer team edged past Edgewood in a 3-1 victory. Woods contributed with a stellar pass to put Lily White in an envious position in front of the goal.
But that was also a return of the courtesy. A month back, White capitalized on a corner kick lofting a ball to Sam Woods, who made no mistake in thumping it in the right direction. The Buccaneers cruised past Lincoln Park Academy in a 6-0 victory in that match.
