The Varsity boys kept it going, winning 2-1 in a close competition. Goals from Micah Roye and Cole Contreras put the Mustangs up. Magnificent saves from Drew Johnson kept the boys in the lead.

Mustangs Have Sportsmanship #BetheChange
Sportsmanship is simple, treat others how you would want to be treated. Respect the game and everyone participating including student-athletes, coaches, officials, and spectators. Education-based athletics is more than winning, it’s about academic development, equity, and character.
