Chino Hills girls soccer wins Battle of the Bone

  It was the 2016 “Battle of the Bone” girls soccer game between crosstown rivals, Chino Hills (9-2-2) and Ayala (3-7-1).

Both teams entered the game looking to make an early statement with the start of league play just days away.

It was the Huskies’ 2-0 road victory tonight over Ayala that gave them redemption for last year’s 1-0 loss to the Bulldogs.

A pair of midfielders, Jessica Miclat and Olivia Seddon, proved to be the difference in the game as each scored a goal for the Huskies.

“It meant a lot because of last year’s result,” Miclat said. “We wanted to put that behind us and really focus on our end goal for this entire season. One of the goals was beating Ayala which will help us and push us to becoming a better team and achieving the bigger goals we’ve set for ourselves.”
