After a scoreless first half, the Madera Coyotes girls soccer team needed a little spark in the second half to pick up a County/Metro Athletic Conference victory over the Edison Tigers. 

The Coyotes got that spark in the fourth minute on a corner kick header from Aaliyah Valencia for a 1-0 victory Thursday in Memorial Stadium. 

When the final three whistles sounded, the Coyotes, who have had a frustrating CMAC season, celebrated after picking up their first league win of the year.
