The boys are now 1-5 but continue to improve every game. Last week they dropped a 21-4 decision to a strong Rockbridge team. Webb had four goals in that one.
The girls also played Rockbridge and lost 15-2. Hylton and Beecher scored for Byrd and Beecher assisted on Hylton’s score. Firebaugh had nine saves against a relentless Wildcat attack.
The girls will take a 4-3 record to Hidden Valley Monday night as they play in the first game of a doubleheader with the boys. The boys’ team will be looking for their second win tonight when they host a Christiansburg team that squeaked by them in the first meeting. Tonight’s game will be at 7 pm at Patterson Stadium.
