CARMICHAEL, Calif. – Senior Caroline Urkov scored four goals and Jenna Barthels and Maggie Oys each added three as St. Francis posted a 17-1 victory over McClatchy Friday night.

“It felt great to contribute to the team and another victory,” said Urkov. “It is always good practice with the more games we get.”

The Troubadours (11-3) led 11-0 after three quarters and allowed a single goal in the final period while adding five goals.

Ally Tambornini also scored two times and recorded four assists and five players had a single goal in the contest, including scores by Sam Reinl, Frances Barbour, Madalyn Lavezzo and Hannah Warren. Barthels added three assists in the win.

“We have to do what we know what to do and come to play,” said Urkov.

The JV team lost a close battle 5-4 with McClatchy to open the double header. Both games were broadcast online on TroubieTV and are available free on demand.

St. Francis travels to face Rio Americano next week on Thursday before heading to the Bay area for two games against St. Francis Mountain View and Sacred Heart on Saturday.
