Mustang Girls Soar, Boys Fall, against EL Wright
Emma Weiland
The Lady Mustangs have secured another victory! On Wednesday, March 18, we had a game against Dent, and we won! Well, the ladies team did, while the boys played their hardest, but still lost. Every week, Mustangs have a game, and they practice hard to secure their victories. Coach White, the coach of the boys team, said, "Our defense is doing a really good job of working as a team. We play in a diamond defense, which requires the players to rotate if someone gets out of position. We have been working on this in practice and my defensive players have been doing a much better job at this during the games. There were a few saves in the last game because the defense rotated well and they were in the correct position." Coach Melvin also had a few things to say for the girls, stating, "The girls worked well together. The girls passed and moved steadily down the field. They looked amazing. Practice paid off."
