Share via

Kristen Palos picked the perfect time to score her first goal in more than two seasons.

The midfielder scored in the 75th minute on Wednesday to give Camarillo High a 1-0 victory over visiting Thousand Oaks in a Southern Section Division I girls’ soccer wild-card playoff game.

Palos, a senior who sat out last season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament, took a pass from Michelle Braunschweiger and bounced a 20-yard shot off the inside of the goal post.

Katie Card had nine saves for her fourth shutout.

The Scorpions (15-6-2), who defeated Thousand Oaks earlier this season, travel to Northern League champion Arroyo Grande Saturday in a first-round game.
