Both Soccer Teams Win Season Openers Friday

Sulphur Springs had itself a wonderful season opener for both soccer teams.

Men and women’s soccer won to start their seasons 1-0.

The Lady Cats got the action goin Friday, Dec. 30 as they hosted Henderson, ranked as high as #4 coming into the season.

Coach Adriana Brena and her squad proceeded to beat the top-10 ranked Lady Lions 4-2 at Gerald Prim Stadium.

The win at home on Friday, Dec. 30 starts off the season with a 1-0 record. The team also went a perfect 6-0 in preseason.

A perfect start to their 2022-23 campaign has Lethal Enforcer ranking Sulphur Springs #5.

Next up, Lady Cats soccer heads to Kilgore for a tournament running Thursday through Saturday, Jan. 5-7.

Their first game takes place Thursday, Jan. 5 at Spring Hill HS taking on Carthage. They next play Friday, taking on old district foe Hallsville at R.E. Saint John Memorial Stadium at 2:20 P.M.
