POST FALLS - Post Falls freshman Kelsey Hedge scored two goals and had two assists as the Trojans defeated the Lakeland Hawks 10-1 in a nonleague girls soccer match on Wednesday.

"We were making the passes with our offense and it was a team effort from start to finish," Post Falls coach Briggs Anderson said. "Everyone was involved. Kelsey, based on the two games we've played, has really begun to make a name for herself as a freshman."

Killie Ellison had three goals for Post Falls (1-1), which hosts Lewiston in the 5A Inland Empire League opener for both on Saturday.

"We're just going game by game and waiting for the next challenge," Anderson said. "Lewiston is going to give us a good test of where we are and want to go."
