The Ballard High School girls soccer team faced another tough opponent in Eastlake during its Oct. 1 match.

Eastlake, one of the top 10 teams in the state, came away with the win 4-2. The Beavers previously lost to Skyline, the No. one team in the state, Sept. 29.

Freshman Kat Aneseni scored both goals unassisted for Ballard in the Oct. 1 match.

The competition should get a little easier for the team in a coming showdown with Bothell, which is 0-4 in the conference and 2-6 overall.

The Beavers head to Bothell Oct. 6 for a 7:30 p.m. match.
