The Saints Soccer season is underway and currently have an overall record of 6-3 including the pre-season. The Saints currently have a 2-2 record in conference play.
The Saints traveled to Cumberland Co. on March 13th and earned their first conference win of the season with a result of 2-0. Two goals from Johnny Hernandez and Mario Mathias was all that was needed for Goalkeeper Diego Coronado and his defense as they held Cumberland United scoreless.
On March 15th, Smith Co. came to town and stunned the Saints scoring a last-second goal to beat the home team 2-1. The offense lead by a goal from Mario Mathias proved not to be enough this time.
The very next day the Saints traveled to Macon Co. on March 16th. The defense, Ashton Campbell, Robert Wheeler, and Kevin Aguirre, helped hold the home team to zero goals in this contest. One goal from Johnny Hernandez was all the Saints needed as DMS wins this one 1-0.
The Saints failed to start a winning streak as they traveled to Cookeville to face Avery Trace on March 22nd. The Saints gave all the Raiders could handle, but lose this one at a final score of 1-0.
The Saints travel to Manchester this weekend to participate in the Red Raider Tournament.
The next two home games for the Saints are next Thursday and Friday! Both games start at 6 pm. The Saints play Algood on Thursday and Warren Co. on Friday.
Upcoming events for the Saints include a “Karen Jacobs night” on April 17th at 6 pm to honor one of the Saints biggest fans! 8th Grade night will be April 26 with ceremonies beginning at 5:30 pm and kick-off at 6:00 pm.
