Andy, I think that Fox Chapel has a reasonable chance of beating Henderson, although Fox Chapel will have to play a better game than they played tonight. Last year Norwin beat Henderson 1-0 in the Championship game and Norwin was the #1 team in the country at the beginning of this season. Although we lost to Norwin 2-1 for the WPIAL Championship a week ago, everyone who saw the game thought Fox Chapel was the stronger team. Norwin scored on a direct kick and a corner kick which has been Fox Chapel's story all year. Very few goals have been scored from the field, and if Fox Chapel can avoid fouling, they will have an excellent chance, especially if it goes to a shoot-out. Nicole has had plenty of experience in shoot-outs and Fox Chapel did very well against Hampton, beating them 4-2 in the shoot-out.

Henderson is a very strong team, but Penn-Trafford said that today all three goals were from set plays (1 PK and 2 corner kicks). Fox Chapel is a good ball controlling team and if they keep the number of set plays to a minimum, they should do well. A win over Henderson would set the stage for a rematch with Norwin and pave the way for a #1 national ranking. Last year the Foxes made the semi's in WPIAL and PIAA. So far this year they have made the finals in WPIAL and they need to win Tuesday to make the PIAA finals. They can do it, but it won't be easy.
