EATON — After having over a dozen shots fail to get by Miami East’s goalkeeper, Lehman Catholic got two by in the last 13 minutes to earn a spot in a district final.

The Cavaliers beat Three Rivers Conference rival Miami East 2-0 in a Division III district semifinal on Monday at Eaton High School to advance to their ninth consecutive district final.

“It was a complete performance,” Lehman coach Josh Duncan said. “We had some shaky bits in the first half, but I told these girls that, ‘We’re on turf, we’re on a wide field, and we’re in no rush. We’re the ones dominating the game, and it’ll come.’”

After Miami East’s goalie made several impressive stops, Dexter was able to score twice in the final minutes.

Dexter scored her first goal unassisted. She broke through midfield and was unguarded, launched a kick from behind the football 20-yard line and sent it by a diving goalkeeper with just under 13 minutes left.

She added an insurance goal a couple of minutes later on an assist from Tanner Black.

“Once that first goal was in, you could see (Miami East) just drop,” Duncan said. “That second one just killed it.”

Dexter has scored 26 goals this season.

“Eva’s awesome. She carries this team,” Duncan said. “Any team that we play knows to guard her. …Her getting those two goals after the constant pressure of this week and playing the same team for the third time is awesome. It’s been tough, but we enjoyed it.”

Senior goalkeeper Heidi Toner had two saves for the Cavaliers.

Lehman (12-4-2) will face Cincinnati Madeira in a district final on Thursday at Bellbrook High School.
