After being held scoreless for the first 151 minutes of the 2024 girls soccer season, a brief two-goal scoring flurry was enough to push Hayden to a 2-1 non-league victory over Free State Monday at Hayden.

Hayden was held scoreless in a 0-0 double-overtime stalemate against Cair Paravel Latin on Friday and fell behind Free State 1-0 in Monday's home-opener before turning the tables with two second-half goals in a span of 1 minute, 46 seconds.
Senior Kate Foust scored at the 28:46 mark of the first half to put Free State up 1-0, a lead that held up through the first half and 11 minutes into the second half, before Hayden senior Lauren Sandstrom connected on a long shot to tie the game at 1-1 with 28:33 remaining.
Wildcat senior Jill Lenherr then broke the tie at the 26:47 mark off an assist from sophomore Reese Huscher.
