The Newport Central Catholic soccer teams won their All “A” 9th Region semifinal contests Wednesday. They scored two goals each and let the defense do the rest.

The Thoroughbreds finished off the contest against visiting St. Henry with a 2-0 win. NewCath (3-0-1) has won three in a row and has allowed just one goal in its first four contests.

NewCath takes on Covington Holy Cross in the region championship game on Thursday. Game time is 7 p.m.

The Lady Breds (3-0) held off the Holy Cross Lady Indians, 2-1 at Morscher Field. Taylor Tolle and Donnelly Simmins scored goals for NewCath. Sophomore Meg Martin had three saves at goalkeeper.

“We gave up a stupid goal late and missed a penalty kick,” said Kevin Turnick, NewCath Head Coach. “There were a ton of shots we shanked. We didn’t finish very well.”

NewCath plays for the region title Saturday at 6 p.m. The opponent will be Beechwood.
