Class 2A Semifinals - Iowa City West 1, Urbandale 0 (Shootout)



The Cinderella of the Class 2A state tournament goes for the slipper Saturday. Eleventh-ranked Iowa City West goalkeeper Aurora Vincent stopped three of four Urbandale kicks in the shootout to lift the Women of Troy to the Class 2A championship with a 1-0 victory over the ninth-ranked J-Hawks.

Iowa City West, the seventh seed in the tournament, followed its upset victory over second-ranked Pleasant Valley in the first round with another stingy defensive effort against Urbandale.

Vincent and Urbandale goalkeeper Whitney Franker both had stellar games in the net in the regulation and overtimes. Vincent stopped five shots on goal while Franker stopped 13 Iowa City West shots.

Jill Goodrich, Jillian Chrischellis and Kelli Goodrich all scored goals for Iowa City West in the shootout while Jacklyn Fox scored Urbandale's shootout goal.

Iowa City West advanced to the state finals for the second time in school history, where they face Johnston at 1 p.m. Saturday.

Urbandale ends its season at 14-5.
