SWEETWATER COUNTY – After the smoke cleared on a wild 4A West soccer season, both Green River teams are into the state tournament while Rock Springs will be fighting for a spot in the state tournament.
The Lady Tigers finished with a win in the final game of the season behind three second half goals by Kelci Howe, Madisyn Cantrell and Steffany Stephenson.
“The first half we were really slow and at half time we discussed tactics to move the ball quicker and second half they came out ready to win,” coach Tamika Davis said. “This was a must win for us so I’m grateful the girls got the job done!”
The Lady Wolves beat Riverton in the final game of the season as they completed a perfect season. Riverton won a tie-breaker over Rock Springs for fourth seed, because the Lady Wolverines won the first head-to-head game vs. the Lady Tigers, and the second game ended in a tie.
The Lady Wolves ended with the top seed in the conference.
On the boy’s side, Rock Springs ended up with the third seed in the conference but lost its final two regular season games. Green River had a change to take over the top spot but lost to Riverton in the final game to give the Wolverines the top spot and the Wolves the second seed.
