The Eagle Pass High School Lady Eagles varsity girls’ soccer team under the guidance of head coach Hugo Garcia and assistant coaches Jose Rangel and Oscar Gonzalez ventured to San Antonio, Texas on Thursday, January 31, 2019 to tangle with the San Antonio Cole High School Lady Cougars in a non-district soccer match. The gutsy visiting Lady Eagles played their hearts out throughout this non-district encounter coming away with the well earned 2 to 1 victory over the Lady Cougars.

Following report courtesy of head coach Hugo Garcia:

We had a little bit of drizzle coming down. We started off fast as Marieester Medrano and Nayelli Rocha created good scoring opportunities and our defensive line of Mariana Wong Sam Cruz, Karen Zamarrippa, and Mariana Perez kept our gk clean. We had a couple of direct kicks and corner kicks which we failed tyo convert. Atzimba Vargas and Jessica Pacheco used their speed to get into Coles territory. A ball reached our gk Yoanna Velasquez and she picked it up she looked a bit disoriented and she step outside the box which gave Cole a direct shot 18 yards away. They nailed it to go up 0-1 midway first half (in experience I would rather make these mistakes now and not in District. 10 minutes later Mia Solorzano stole the ball drove into the box and beat the goalie to make it 1-1 tied going into half time.

2nd half saw Cole create two opportunities but our freshmen gk Esmeralda Martinez made some key saves. We got fouled 30 yards away from the goal and Maritza Gonzalez ripped off a shot that hit the upper 90 to put us up 2-1. We used speed as Atzimba Vargas , Nayelli Rocha and Jessica Pacheco were just to fast to their credit their gk stopped everything 2-1 win for the Lady Eagles
