SAN MARCOS – The Boerne Champion boys soccer team held off Leander for a long time during Friday’s first-round playoff match in San Marcos, but once the Lions scored with 16 minutes left, it snowballed from there.

Leander tallied three goals in the final 16 minutes to earn the 3-0 win and eliminate the Chargers from the playoffs. It’s only the second loss of the season for the Champion team that finishes its year at 14-2-3.

Chargers coach Clifton Tierney said he was proud of how his team competed against a good Leander squad that was the fourth seed from its district but came on strong towards the end of the season.
