The Fruitport girls soccer team will be looking for more offense on Friday when it hosts Lowell in a non-conference matchup.

The Trojans have had a goal-scoring shortage over the past week, resulting in three close losses.

Fruitport fell to Reeths-Puffer 2-0 on Saturday. While the Trojans failed to score, Coach Kyle Hall credited Izzy Hanson-Wilbur, Lauren Reidel and McKenzie Pate for solid defensive play.

The scoring drought continued on Monday with a 2-0 loss to Holland Christian in O-K Blue conference action.

Coach Hall gave a nod to goalkeeper Riley Kettle, as well as Morgan Wescott, Mallory Smith, Izzy Hanson-Wilbur, and Jorja Blackmer for strong performances.

The Trojans broke the scoring slump on Wednesday in a 3-1 conference loss to Allendale.

Violet Olinghouse found the net for Fruitport.

The Trojans are now 1-4 overall and 0-3 in conference play.
