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."

The Third Degree: Berkner's second-half start too much for Horn

Published: Saturday, February 23, 2013 1:27 AM CST
Horn might have been the underdog on Friday against Berkner but it was right where it needed to be at halftime.


The Jaguars were within 27-24 and it was anybody's game.

That was before the Rams ripped off a 31-8 run in the third quarter on their way to a 81-54 victory in a Class 5A area round playoff game at Naaman Forest High School.

Berkner (30-5) advances to the regional quarterfinals to face district mate Jesuit, while Horn finishes the season with a 17-15 record.

Behind 21 points from Anthony Sharp, 12 by Zach Charles and 11 from Alan Hodge, the Jaguars fought back from an early deficit to close the gap to three heading into halftime.

But Berkner stole the show from there. Soma Edo had 19 points and Keenan Evans added 14 as that duo helped turn a tight game into a 58-32 lead.

Horn tried to crank up the offense in the fourth with 22 points, but the Rams matched them step for step as they cruised to the win.
