GREEN RIVER – After opening with a win against Pinedale, the Green River Lady Wolves moved into the Southwest Invitation semifinals with a victory over Star Valley, 2-0.
The Lady Wolves dominated Pinedale to open the day and returned to the field to face a tough Star Valley team.

With 13 minutes left in the first, Taylor Stoeger blasted a shot that went past the Lady Braves goalie to give the Lady Wolves the 1-0 advantage.
