On To Round Three: V.R. Eaton Lady Eagles Soccer
The Lady Eagles have been on a roll this season as they have powered through their preseason, district, and post-season schedules. With a 61% win streak, Northwest Eaton went into a tough matchup against San Angelo Central on Tuesday. VYPE DFW takes a dive into the Lady Eagles' season and what fans can expect going forward:
A Look Back
The Lady Eagles posted big victories this season over the likes of El Paso Eastwood, Kingwood, Keller Fossil Ridge, and more. With big victories, the Lady Eagles were ready for success as they entered playoffs. Eaton has been able to defeat Fort Worth Paschal and most recently San Angelo Central.
The Lady Eagles posted a 4-0 shut-out victory over San Angelo Central. During the game, Kieley Aranda, Alexis Miller, Hannah Oberback, and Kassandra Ruelas scored goals for the Lady Eagles. Aranda and Madison Blue tallied assists during the game.
Looking Ahead
Northwest Eaton (11-6-5) is slated to take on Keller (16-1-5) on Friday evening at home during round three of the Texas high school girls soccer playoffs. Eaton has already seen Keller on the pitch twice this season- once in early February where the teams tied with one goal apiece and once in late February when the Lady Indians posted a 2-0 victory over the Lady Eagles. Fans can expect Eaton to be more than prepared headed into the match this Friday.
While both teams tend to be strong second-half contenders, this game is going to come down to defense. There's no doubt that the sharp-witted skills of the Lady Eagle defense is ready for revenge against a fast-striking Lady Indian offense. The game is set to begin at 7 p.m.
Striving for greatness: Eaton Eagle Soccer
There have been a few season that haven't gone the way the Eaton Eagle soccer fans wished they would have. Although the team had fought hard over the previous years, they couldn't seem to pull away from the seasons with a great record. This season, the Eaton Eagles are changing their team culture and setting forth with the mentality to be successful. VYPE DFW dives into what fans should expect out of the Eaton Eagle soccer team this season:
Last season, the team finished sixth in their district, but was still able to post some great wins on the year. The team even closed out their season with a victory over Keller Fossil Ridge. Despite a tough season, the team is ready to prove to themselves, the fans, and any naysayers out there that they have what it takes to compete against some of the best teams in the metroplex.
So far this season, the team has been tough on the field. Although they have suffered a handful of losses, the Eagles have fought hard and shown that they have the ability to maintain a momentum that allows the offense to score and the defense to step up when absolutely necessary. The team has posted wins against the likes of Crowley, Abilene Cooper, and Keller Fossil Ridge and looks ahead to what should be a strong district schedule.
Although the team will face some of the toughest teams in the metroplex, fans shouldn't count the Eagles out just yet. They have a strong spirit and an energetic presence on the field every time they enter the game. With the desire to want to achieve success, fans can expect the Eaton Eagles to play hard every single game this season. There will be a new culture on the field this season through district play- a stronger one. Fans can expect nothing less than determination this season.
