The Roseburg High girls soccer team beat South Eugene 3-1 at Finlay Field to earn its first Southwest Conference victory since 2006 and first of this season.

The Indians last won an SWC match against Grants Pass in their regular-season finale two seasons ago.

Shae Yuma netted a goal in the 40th minute on an assist by Chelsie Heberling and again in the 57th minute on a breakaway set up by Hannah Russo. Haleigh Hendrix scored in the 45th minute on a cross pass by Brooke Strawn.

Madison Cling netted South Eugene’s only goal in the 67th minute.

“It’s huge for the team and for the girls and their confidence,” Roseburg head coach Adam Blue said. “We played as a team.”

The Axemen played a girl short after receiving a red card in the 18th minute. The Indians outshot South Eugene 18-11 and 10-5 on goal.

Roseburg (1-6-1, 1-3 SWC) hosts South Medford at Finlay Field Tuesday night.

The Indians, who had two more shots on goal (6-4) than South Eugene, had two chances to score in the second overtime, Roseburg head coach Kevin Hunt said.

Hunt added that Reid Martin and Aaron Oppeltz played well on defense.

“It was one of those ‘too bad somebody’s gotta loss’ games,” Hunt said.
