Lady Chaps Dominate Caddo Mills, Claim Second Straight Bi-District Title The Lady Chaps soccer team became bi-district champions for the second consecutive year with a dominant 7-1 victory over Caddo Mills. In a rematch of last year’s first-round playoff game, Aubrey faced a physical and athletic Caddo Mills squad. The first 10 minutes saw both teams create scoring chances, but the Lady Chaps struck first. On a counterattack, senior Macy Childers found freshman Daniella Dominic-Etuk wide open in the middle of the 18-yard box for the opening goal. Just four minutes later, junior Brynnlee Bohannon delivered a brilliant pass behind the defense to Childers, who finished with composure to put Aubrey up 2-0. Despite Caddo Mills’ pressure, the Lady Chaps’ young back line—freshmen Eva Jones and Lauralai Baker, along with sophomores Lilly Stewart and Jordin Gomez—held strong to maintain the two-goal lead at halftime. Expecting an energized second half from Caddo Mills, the Lady Chaps responded with an offensive explosion, scoring three goals in the first seven minutes after the break. Childers and Dominic-Etuk connected again for the first goal of the half. Two minutes later, Bohannon stole the ball in her own half, sprinted 60 yards, and was fouled from behind in the box before calmly converting the ensuing penalty kick. Three minutes after that, Bohannon assisted Dominic-Etuk’s third goal, securing her hat trick. Toward the end of the match, Childers delivered a perfect cross to senior Andrea Anez, who buried her first goal of the season with a left-footed finish. The scoring was capped off when the captains combined again, with Bohannon assisting Childers for the seventh goal. Although goalkeeper Lexis Jones conceded one goal, she delivered a standout performance, making 13 key saves, including a crucial penalty kick stop that helped maintain momentum in the second half. The Lady Chaps advance to the area round, where they will face LIFE Oak Cliff next week. Game details are still being finalized. Game Stats:    •   Sr. Macy Childers: 2 goals, 3 assists    •   Jr. Brynnlee Bohannon: 1 goal, 3 assists    •   Fr. Daniella Dominic-Etuk: 3 goals    •   Sr. Andrea Anez: 1 goal    •   Jr. Lexis Jones: 13 saves, 1 PK save
