The Aubrey Lady Chaparrals soccer team secured their fifth district win of the season with a come-from-behind 8-3 win over the Gainesville Lady Leopards on Monday night.
In their first match after a long layoff because of the recent ice storm, the Lady Chaps fell behind 3-1 early but found their footing toward the end of the opening period and took control of the match.
“It’s rough when you haven’t practiced in almost two weeks,” said Kelli Baker, Aubrey head girls soccer coach. “We came out sluggish and went down 3-1 in the first half, but we battled and took the lead, 4-3, at halftime. You never want to get behind, but it showed a lot of character and grit and gave us something to think about going forward into maybe the postseason.”
