Girls soccer: Martini's 5 goals lift St. Edward over Rosary

Jumping out to an early 2-0 lead, things looked good for St. Edward (1-5, 1-0) in a 6-4 win over Rosary on Tuesday.

But the Royals came roaring back to take a 3-2 lead into half. Two quick goals by Rachel Martini, who scored 5 of St. Edward's 6 goals, put the Wave up 4-3, only to see Rosary tie it at again at four. Two more goals by Martini sealed the victory, and the young Wave defense finished the game strong.
