The Northwest Lady Texans soccer team opened up their schedule on Tuesday, January 11 with a victory on the road. The team is looking to make their first playoff appearance since the 2016-17 season. With the Lady Texans' strength showing on Tuesday, there is not doubt that this squad is certainly set up for greatness!
In their first game of the season, the Lady Texans posted a 3-0 win over Fort Worth Chisholm Trail. Rachel Hand started off the scoring with a goal off of a free kick. Not long after, Hand found Jenna Nolting on a corner kick and Nolting was able to send the ball into the net. Jenna Kirk was able to score the team's third goal in the 38th minute and the Lady Texans went on to win the match.
Northwest is slated to face-off against a handful of really great teams during their preseason play including the likes of Kennedale, Aledo, Argyle, and more before heading into their district schedule. The Lady Texans, looking strong on the field, can be expected to play with quick-footed offense. Not only does the team have a strong set of scorers, though, the Lady Texans are equipped with a great set of defensive players. Fans can expect the team to make a strong campaign towards one of their best seasons yet!
