Tonight, the Aubrey Chaparrals came just shy of beating a state-ranked Celina team. We lost 1-2 from two set pieces, a corner and a free kick. At halftime, Aubrey was down 2-0, but came out fighting in the second half with a goal from Juan Paredes about 10 minutes into the second half. Aubrey had a relentless attack but just couldn't put the ball in for the second goal. Aubrey will take on Anna at Anna on Saturday, Feb. 3, at 12 p.m.

Aubrey improved our overall record to 21-9 and 4-2 in district play with a big win over Van Alstyne. This was one of those wins that you just have to gut it out and keep fighting to the very end. Van Alstyne’s size and defensive zone that they run gave us a lot of trouble at their place, so we knew we had to move the ball well and be in attack mode to have a chance to win. I still believe that any team in this district can beat any other team on any given night. Our boys know we cannot be satisfied and that we need to bring our best effort this coming Friday at Celina. Scorers for Aubrey: Branden West 2 Gavin Barnes 8 Emory Jones 22 Tyler Brown 4 Elijah Herron 12

The Aubrey Lady Chaps improved to 2-6 in district and 11-15 overall with a 38-34 win over Van Alstyne. The score by quarters for Aubrey were 10, 8, 12, 8, while the score by quarters for Van Alstyne were 10, 10, 4, 10. Scorers for Aubrey were Brooklyn Weier with 22 points, Kynadi Hall with 6, Shelby Harrington with 4, and Landry Gannon, Molly Ward, and Abby Buxton with 2 points each. This was a big win for us tonight. The girls did an excellent job on the defensive end of the floor. Brooklyn really got going scoring-wise in the first half with four threes before halftime. The girls did a great job at the end of the game to keep us ahead. The Lady Chaps return to action on Friday night at Celina.

Progress is being made on Elementary #4 and Middle School #2. The new elementary is set to open August 2024, while the middle school is scheduled to open August 2025. These campuses are part of the bond that was passed in 2022. It is an exciting time to be a Chaparral!

The Chaparrals come up short Friday night. Coach Smith Reports: Aubrey's overall record now stands at 20-9 and 3-2 in district play with a loss to a very tough Anna team. We started the game hot, exchanging buckets with Anna and hitting 3 threes in the first quarter. Anna has the quickest team in the district and they are also extremely good shooters, which is a tough combination to defend. We were tied at 17 in the first quarter with a minute to go, and Anna made a short run to take the lead. They had another run on us in the second quarter, causing us to go into halftime down 12 points. I am extremely proud of how our guys came out in the second half and played very aggressively, making good plays on both ends of the floor. We cut the lead to 5 points with 3 minutes to go, but Anna hit a couple of threes to extend the lead back. I am very proud of this team with how hard they compete. We have a tough second round ahead of us with 3 of the 5 remaining games at home. This will be a fun team to come out and support over the next 2 weeks. Scorers for Aubrey: Tyler Hightower 3 Branden West 4 Gavin Barnes 5 Jaedon Bogar 10 Emory Jones 5 Tyler Brown 2 Elijah Herron 26 Coach Gathright Reports: The Aubrey Lady Chaps suffered a 38-29 loss to Anna, bringing their district record to 1-6 and their overall record to 10-15. The scoring breakdown by quarters for Aubrey was 4, 11, 6, 8, while Anna scored 7, 14, 9, 8 in each respective quarter. Leading scorers for Aubrey were Shelby Harrington with 11 points, Kynadi Hall with 8, Brooklyn Weier with 3, and Landry Gannon with 2. Next, the Lady Chaps will be back in action on Tuesday, playing at home against Van Alstyne.

The Aubrey Soccer Program Sweeps Farmersville Friday Night Coach Woodward Reports: The Aubrey Girls soccer team won their first district home game against Farmersville with a score of 8-2! The Lady Chaps now have a record of 4-4 overall and 1-1 in district. Macy Childers scored 3 goals and assisted 1 goal, while Brynnlee Bohannon scored 3 goals. Landry Gannon scored 1 goal and assisted 1 goal, and Laney Lomas, Lilly Stewart, Kendall Sweetman, and Alexis Quinn each assisted 1 goal. The girls' next game will be on Tuesday, Jan. 30 at Celina at 7:15 p.m. Coach Dumond Reports: Last night was a special night for Aubrey Soccer as the boys played in a nail-biter against a scrappy Farmersville team. The first half was spent in the midfield with a few opportunities for both teams, and Aubrey fighting against the wind. However, neither team managed to find the back of the net in the first half. In the second half, Farmersville played a very compact game while Aubrey dominated possession and took shot after shot, but still couldn't find the goal. The game ended in a 0-0 tie in regulation. It then went to penalty kicks, with Aubrey winning 4-3. The penalty kicks were scored respectively by Spencer Berger, Vladyslav Dryshliuk, Aiden Pearson, and Osvaldo Osorio. Next Tuesday, Aubrey will face district rival Celina at home with a 7:15 p.m. kick-off. We encourage everyone to come out and pack the stands!

Coach Smith Reports: Jan. 19 Aubrey improved our overall record to 19-8 and 2-1 in district play with a win over Carrollton Ranchview, 58-36. All wins in the district are big, especially any road win in this district. We had a hard time at the start of the game finishing our shots, but turned it around on defense in the second quarter to come back and take the lead at half. The second half was a very good half for us. We were aggressive offensively and defensively. I am very proud of this team for being able to adjust during the game and find a way to come out with a win. Next up is a very big home game against Panther Creek, who is currently leading the district at 3-0. We would love to see a full house on Tuesday night to help us compete well against a very strong team.

The Aubrey Soccer boys team played Sanger tonight for their final non-district game at home. The score at half was 1-0, with only one goal punched through by Leo Mejia. During the second half, the Aubrey attack remained relentless and the offense woke up with another goal by Leo. Juan Serrano scored a goal off of a build-up to make it 3-0. Aubrey scored on two corners to finalize the game, with Freshman Osvaldo Osorio and Senior David Lopez scoring from corner kicks delivered by Leo Mejia. Tonight, the Aubrey Chaps accomplished exactly what they were aiming for in a lopsided victory of 5-0 against a rival, with everyone getting playing time heading into district play next week. Aubrey faces off against the #2 team in the region next week in Frisco Panther Creek for the first-ever district game in school history. The game is at Panther Creek High School at 5:45 PM next Wednesday, January 24th. Hope to see you there!

The Lady Chaps Soccer team fell to a 3-3 record after a 2-5 loss to Wichita Falls. Brynnlee Bohannon scored 1 goal, and freshman Landry Gannon also scored 1 goal. Macy Childers had 1 assist. The girls started strong in the first half, taking the lead 2-1. However, in the second half, we became slightly relaxed and allowed Wichita Falls to score 3 goals within 8 minutes.
