Soccer: Padelski strikes in OT to lift Nolensville past Ravenwood into region final
| |
By David Dawson • Sports Writer
BRENTWOOD — Considering the enormous amount of goals that Maddie Padelski has scored in the past two seasons, there’s virtually no way she can keep track of them all.
There’s not much doubt, however, that she’ll be able to remember the one she scored on Monday night. And so will the Nolensville High School fans.
In a high-stakes matchup between powerhouse programs, Padelski, the highly-decorated sophomore striker, produced the night’s only tally when she found the net in the sixth minute of the second overtime period to lead Nolensville to a 1-0 victory over host Ravenwood in the Region 6-AAA semifinals.
