HELENA — Throughout her high school career, Helena High’s Rachel Plaster has had a penchant for finding the back of the net.
Prior to Wednesday’s crosstown matchup with Helena Capital, Plaster had scored four goals in seven games this season. But against the Bruins, the senior scored four goals, including a first-half hat trick in what wound up as a 7-1 win.
“It was a really fun day,” Plaster said after the win. “I think I was just finally playing to play. Instead of looking at stats and things like that. I feel like I got my mojo back a little bit — just playing hard, trying to win 50/50 balls and worrying how to progress the ball. I’ve had a bit of a mental thing, I just feel like every time I shoot, it’s been right at the goalie, but today, I just felt good and I’m just so proud of all my teammates.”
One teammate the senior can be particularly proud of is sophomore Avery Kraft, who netted a hat trick of her own on Wednesday.
