Oxford 2, Sidney 1

OXFORD – Oxford found itself in a much more difficult matchup than usual with the feisty Warriors Saturday.

Christi Baker had first-half goals for Oxford (5-3) tallying at 20:08 and 11:11. The win was the fifth in six games for Oxford, who gave up a second-half goal to Sidney’s Meredith Delello. “I give them credit, they came out and played well in the second half,” said Oxford coach Missy Chrystie of the Warriors. “We had plenty of opportunities, but weren’t able to put in another goal.”

Oxford plays Harpursville Wednesday.
