On Saturday, Deutsch took part in all three goals in a 3-1 win over Downers Grove North at the BodyArmor Series. She scored the opening goal of the game, then added two assists in the second half.

She scored the only goal of Tuesday’s conference opener at Waubonsie Valley. On Saturday, the Northwestern commit scored an incredible free-kick goal in the first half to beat previously unbeaten St. Charles North 2-0. Norkett is an excellent two-way center-midfielder who plays with a lot of pace with the ball and has a unique skillset. She has a very powerful left foot and she showed it against the North Stars on Saturday. Can stop counter attacks on the defensive end too. <strong>F Olivia Anderson, Naperville North, Sr.</strong> Anderson has continued her hot start to the season.

She also got an assist that game. Anderson then scored and assisted in the Huskies 4-0 win against Evanston in the Lou Malnati's Deep Dish Classic on Saturday. Olivia Anderson plays with a very high motor and loves to create her own shot. If the shot isn't there, she'll make great plays to teammates. <strong>F Grace Williams, St. Charles East, Jr.</strong> Williams scored seven goals in Carbondale this weekend. She started things off with a 7-0 win over Belleville ease where she scored four goals in the 25 minutes she played. On Saturday, the junior scored twice and assisted in a win over Carterville. On Sunday, the Saints took down previously unbeaten Marion from southern Illinois 3-0. Williams scored in that game too.
