There wasn’t much offense in Tuesday’s tilt and only one goal was scored and it came from the Greyhounds that went on to post a 1-0 win.

Kinsley Sawyer tallied the only goal of the match on a free kick in the second half for the only offense of the night.

The cold weather that hit the Hill Country on Tuesday night didn’t stop the Boerne boys from tallying five goals, four of those coming in the second half.

Kerrville scored a few goals as well and was leading 3-1 at halftime, but the Greyhounds knocked in four second-half goals to defeat the Antlers, 5-3.

Felix Theiss finished with a hat trick and netted 3 goals, while Austin Vecino tallied 2 goals.

The Boerne High boys are 8-1-1 in district and 10-2-1 overall. BHS is in second place and has a three-game lead over third-place New Braunfels, which is 5-3-1 in 26-5A. Pieper is the only team ahead of the Hounds at 10-0.
