Lemoore’s boys’ soccer team goes into its final preseason matches sporting a solid 7-4-1 mark as it prepares for the Jan. 7 West Yosemite League opener at home against Redwood High School. The Tiger boys hit the road against Lindsay on Dec. 19 and Bakersfield Christian on Dec. 20 as they conclude their preseason.

On Tuesday, the Tigers rolled over the visiting Marauders 3-1, scoring once in the opening half and twice in the second half to improve its season-long record.

Lemoore’s varsity girls’ team has been having a rough time during its preseason. The Lady Tigers are 0-7-1 and hope to record the squad’s first win when the Tigers host Lindsay High School Thursday (Dec. 19). Game time is 6:30 p.m.

Like the boys’ team, the Lady Tigers will play Redwood High in their WYL opener, in Visalia.

Lemoore’s girls dropped a close 1-0 contest to Monache in Porterville Tuesday night, the only goal, a second-half score to give the Marauders the victory.
