Girls soccer team picks up first win of regular season

Taliya Robson goes after a loose ball during the second half of the same game. Robson was one of three goal scorers on the afternoon, along with Aria Pare and June Buchner. Emersyn Oliver got the shutout for the Wolves, who play again today (April 16) at 4 p.m. at home versus Essex.

The North Star Wolves senior girls soccer team has its first win of the season.

The Wolves rebounded nicely after an opening game loss at Belle River by beating the Erie Migration Coyotes 3-0 last Wednesday afternoon at the Libro Centre in Amherstburg. North Star got goals from Aria Pare, June Buchner and Taliya Robson. Emersyn Oliver picked up the shutout for the Wolves, who are now 1-1 on the 2025 WECSSAA Tier II County “AA” soccer season.

“I think our defense is really strong,” said Robson.

Robson added their passing was a positive against the Coyotes last Wednesday and that they “kept our structure” throughout the match. 

Robson and teammate Ada Faber both stated Oliver played well for the Wolves. Oliver is a Grade 9 player and she was credited with having a good game for North Star, with Faber adding they were proud of her for how she played.

“We had some good sprints and a lot of shots,” she said. 

Robson added the match against Erie Migration was Oliver’s first game and believed better things are ahead for her and the team.

Amelia Cacilhas added the Wolves showed great communication and had a lot of shots versus the Kingsville-based school. 

Faber stated they are hoping for a championship this year, noting this is the last year for the three of them.

The Wolves next game is today (April 16) at the Libro Centre versus the Essex Red Raiders.  North Star travels to L’Essor April 28 and will wrap up the regular season against Kennedy at the Libro Centre May 5. All games are at 4 p.m.

The boys team was at home Monday afternoon looking for their first victory of the 2025 season. The Kennedy Clippers came to Amherstburg and the final result saw XXXXXXXXXXX win by a final score of X-X. 

The North Star boys’ next game is at Catholic Central April 24 at 8 p.m. They play at Lajeunesse April 28 at 4 p.m. before concluding the regular season April 30 at home against Walkerville at 4 p.m.
