The high school boys soccer season is always a time of chaos between weather and illness delaying or rescheduling games across the region. After two and a half weeks of no game, the Owls came back strong. They had their first District win against Jackson County 3-0 goals coming from Aldrin Jimenez assisted by Michael Martin, Blake Baird with an assist from Tatum Poindexter and Blake Baird finished it off with a goal on a penalty kick. Next Cannon County came to Smith County for their first match since Cannon came back into our district. This would be the Owls first mercy ruled game of the season winning 9-0! Blake Baird had a hat trick, Abi Martinez and Jarrain Smith each netted a penalty kick, Gavin Kemp, Terence Davis and Aldrin Jimenez each scored and there was an own goal. Assists came from Terence Davis, Adyn Elliott, Diego Vanegas, Bradley Pickett and two from Aldrin Jimenez.
Smith County now leads the district and has an overall record of 5-1-1. Next up is Macon County and York Institute both home games. Come out and support these hard working student athletes, they are very fun to watch.
