The Liberty County girls soccer team has made strides this spring, currently standing 3-3 in region play and showing growth and improvement with each match, according to coach Catrina Hicks.

In her first year coaching the Lady Panthers, Hicks said she is pleased with the work and determination of this year’s team.

"We have a great group of girls this year," she said. ‘The team has good attitudes and is willing to learn, the results are apparent in each match."

Having played in high school and at the collegiate level, Hicks has the expertise and knowledge to lead the Lady Panthers in the highly competitive Region 2AAA. Next match for the Lady Panthers is at home at 5 p.m. Tuesday.
