North Harford and Aberdeen began their UCBAC Chesapeake Division girls soccer schedule Monday afternoon with a head-to-head game in Aberdeen. The Hawks (1-0 league, 5-1 overall) scored a goal in each half en route to a 2-0 win.
Aberdeen's (0-1, 2-3) defense gave the Hawks trouble in the early going, but North Harford finally broke through 22 minutes into the first half when halfback Alison Beers pushed a ball away from a defender and into the path of halfback Meghan Root, who hit a hard rising shot about 20 yards out that found the upper half of the goal, just out of the reach of Eagles goalie Lisa Eller.
The Hawks scored again, early in the second half, on a rush down the right side by Leah Monticello, who beat three defenders, before passing the ball to an unmarked Tessa Mirjafary, who calmly placed the ball into the far left side of the goal.
North Harford goalie Haley Jacobs recorded the shutout with three saves, while Eller had nine saves for the Eagles.
