Stuck in the middle with blue: Lady Eagles struggle to find scoring chances in loss to Lady Wolves

The Allen girls soccer team (2-3-2 in district) had the first and last quality scoring chances Tuesday night versus Plano West with sophomore Morgan Cherry in the 2nd minute and freshman Marissa Kinsey in the 79th minute.

The middle 77 minutes, however, largely belonged to the Lady Wolves in a 2-0 win.

"I thought we came out flat in the first half," said Kevin Albury, Allen head coach. "West is a great team, but maybe we gave them a little too much respect."

Dallas Christian boys march on to state championship game

Published: Saturday, March 2, 2013 12:34 AM CST
The first time Dallas Christian defeated Trinity Christian-Cedar Hill, it won the regular season TAPPS 2-4A championship.


A week later, the Chargers won the second meeting to earn the district's tournament title.

On Friday, Dallas Christian defeated TCCH for a third time, and the prize for this victory was the sweetest of the three.

This reward was a shot at a state championship as the Chargers rolled to a 70-55 victory in a TAPPS Class 4A state semifinal game at Mansfield Legacy High School.

Dallas Christian (22-1) will face Houston Westbury Christian for the state crown on Saturday at 2 p.m. at Mansfield Legacy.

As they did in the state quarterfinals against another district foe, Parish Episcopal, the Chargers refused to allow TC-Cedar Hill to reverse its earlier fate.

Dallas Christian scored 20 points in the opening quarter and led 31-22 at halftime. They steadily pulled away from there, opening a 51-33 lead through three quarters and then scored 24 in the fourth.

D'Andre Cannon had 18 points, Cameron Martin scored 17 and Alex Craig added 11 for the Chargers. TC-Cedar Hill's Garrick Williams scored 28 points to lead all scorers.
