The Cavemen and Cavegirls soccer teams will open District 4/5A play on Tuesday, October 1, against the Clovis Wildcats.
The Cavegirls will host Clovis while the Cavemen will be on the road. The JVs will take the field at 4:30 p.m. and the varsity at 6:30 p.m. at both sites.
Pre-district play has been especially difficult for both squads. The Cavegirls will kick off the district season with a record of 4-10, the Cavemen 2-12.
Injuries have played a big role in both teams' struggles this year. But, ready or not, the conference season is here, and it appears that both teams will definitely be challenged.
