Results from Tuesday’s Southwest Florida district soccer championships.
Class 6A-District 12 Girls
Fort Myers 4, Palmetto Ridge 0
The Fort Myers High School girls soccer team used an early scoring outburst and a solid defensive effort to top Palmetto Ridge and claim the District 6A-12 championship Tuesday at Edison Stadium.
The Green Wave (11-3-2) scored all four of their goals in an 18-minute span of the opening half. Senior striker Kailani Casazza had two of the tallies, with freshman forward Lyla Perk and senior Samantha Degen adding the others.

That was more than enough offense for senior goalkeeper Caly Crisman to earn her sixth shutout of the season. She didn’t face many strong challenges but came up big on a rocket by Palmetto Ridge forward Maritza Meza-Morales in the 26th minute to keep the Bears (10-8) off the scoreboard.
“We came out on fire and that made my job a little bit easier,” Crisman said. “I’m very proud of this team and how far we’ve come. We’ve had a great season so far and we’re excited to keep going.”
