EDWARDSVILLE – Freshman forward Ellah Anslem wasted no time getting on the score sheet for Marquette. In her first high school match, she scored both goals in a 2-1 victory over Springfield High School in the season-opener. It only took her seven minutes to find the back of the net to take the early 1-0 lead. Springfield eventually tied it back up in the 29 th minute, but it didn’t slow her down. In the 39 th minute, she scored the eventual game-winning goal to make it 2-1 lead. No one scored in the second half and that’s how the game would end, with her two goals being the difference. “I was so nervous, but I was lucky to have my teammates beside me,” Anslem said after the win. For Anselm's opening performance, she is one of the Tucker Automotive and Repair Female Athletes of the Month for Marquette Catholic High School. Even though she netted both goals she stayed very humble to her team. “They were good goals. My teammates gave me good assists
