Coming off their first District 9-5A win in the opening game of district play, the boys’ soccer team is looking to start a winning streak as they take on Independence High School Friday night at 7:00 p.m.

“After winning last week’s games we’ve gained a lot of confidence and momentum going into our games this week,” senior Andy Wolfe said. “This week we hope to win all of our games and keep the momentum going.” 

The girls fell short to the Warriors Tuesday night, so the team is looking to get their first District 9-5A win as they travel to Independence to take on the Knights at 5:00 p.m.

“We have been working on shooting our opponents in all aspects, including in general, on frame, and behind the keeper,” senior Emily Chladny said. “Defensively, we also want to win the ball back within six seconds.”
