Both West Hills girls soccer teams competing in the WPIAL Class 1A tournament saw their seasons come to an end in the quarterfinals Saturday.
Ninth-seeded Carlynton lost 2-0 to top-seed Sewickley Academy in a game played at Quaker Valley High School.
And No. 10 seed Our Lady of the Sacred Heart fell 2-0 to No. 2 seed Bentworth at Peters Township Middle School.
Emelia Carrabba of Sewickley Academy broke a scoreless tie with about 15 minutes to play in the game, giving the Panthers a 1-0 lead, and Mackenzie Dice added a second goal several minutes later, and that was all they needed to advance.
Carlynton, which opened its run in the playoffs with a 2-1 win over Eden Christian Tuesday night, finished its season 11-8-1.
OLSH, which squeezed past Aquinas Academy in its playoff opener Tuesday, wound up with an 8-7-1 overall record.
Brielle Dillon scored both goals for Bentworth Saturday, with the first one coming five minutes into the game and the second one coming five minutes later.
In next week’s Class 3A tournament, Moon Area will take on South Fayette at 8 p.m. Monday in a semifinal match at Keystone Oaks High School.
Third-seeded Moon won its quarterfinal matchup against Shaler, 2-1, Thursday. South Fayette is seeded No. 2 in the Class 3A tournament.
