The Redhawks met the Lone Star Rangers on the field on Tuesday, but both walked away with tied scores.
Early in the game at The Nest, the girls led 2-0, but could not hold off the Rangers ending with a 2-2 draw.
“The team played well, ” senior Kennedy Clountz said. “We could have finished more opportunities on goal, but overall we did good and ended with a 2-2 draw.”
Meanwhile, the boys’ team traveled to Lone Star where they walked away with similar results, a 0-0 draw.
The boys still remain first in District 9-5A, and the draw on Tuesday brings their record to an undefeated 5-0-3.
“I think our team’s strengths right now is that we have a group of guys that never quit,” head coach Evan McGee said. “And they don’t back down and they’re not scared of whoever they’re playing. So they always have a lot of confidence going into the game, and they always bring a good level of energy.”
After the cancellation of last Friday’s game due to weather, the Redhawks take the field again Wednesday when the girls kick off at 5:30 p.m. and the boys at 7:15 p.m. at Reedy High School.
“Tonight’s game is going to be tough against a good Reedy team,” Clountz said. “It should be a competitive game and hopefully we come out with a win.”
