The Lady Dogs took care of business in their homecoming matchup against Libby on Saturday, winning 6-0.

Sophie Olson, assisted by Adrienne Healy, added a second goal just two minutes later.
Cook’s second and third goals came unassisted in the 38th and 54th minute to complete the hat trick, and she tacked on one more in the 63rd minute, assisted by Grace Benkelman.
Sofie Saurey put the finishing touch on the win with a goal in the 72nd minute, assisted by Anna Akey.
