The Desert Hills Thunder snapped a three-game win streak for Cedar City after a 2-1 overtime road victory. It was a crucial win for the Thunder, who are fighting with Crimson Cliffs for the top spot in Region 9. The Thunder earned a 1-0 halftime lead thanks to a goal from Ellie Hendrix. However, the Reds matched it in the second half and pushed the game into overtime. Desert Hills’ Kimber Clawson found the golden goal in overtime for the 2-1 victory. “Cedar is always a very challenging place to play,” said Desert Hills coach Benji Nelson. “Cedar is well coached and their team always comes prepared to give us all we can handle. As we went into overtime we definitely were tired. The change in elevation and playing on the grass always seems to help wear us down. The girls found that extra energy and gave extra effort wanting to revenge a loss last year at Cedar 1-0. And the girls found a way to score.”
