The Lady Spartan soccer squad of Kerr Vance Academy scored early and often then hung on to defeat Hickory Christian in the semi-finals at home, jumping out in the first ten minutes to a 3-0 lead.

Kerr-Vance was led in scoring by Ashley Dickerson who had two goals and Emma Hogge with one. The defense was anchored by seniors Caroline Hoyle, Bonnie Evans, and goal-keeper Holly Steg.

Looking for a repeat, KVA moves on to the state championship on Saturday, May 19 at 11 a.m. on the campus of Campbell University.
