Wildcats and Lady Cats Sports Competitors are Pointing Toward Some Big Dates Ahead

The Wildcats Soccer Team already has a date in mind for their bi-district game. The match is expected to be played a week from Friday on March 26. They just don’t know who they will be facing yet.

That is expected to be determined Friday after District 16-5A completes district play. The Wildcats, as the #4 seed in District 15-5A, will be facing the champion and #1 seed from District 16-5A.

Right now Whitehouse and Lufkin are tied at the top with 7-2 district records. Friday, Whitehouse plays at Tyler, right now a #4 seed, while Lufkin plays at home against now #3 seed Nacogdoches.

Both the Wildcats Baseball Team and Lady Cats Softball Team are involved in district play. The Lady Cats will be playing their fourth district game Friday while the Wildcats play their third. Both play in Texarkana at Texas High Friday night. The Lady Cats continue district play through April 20 and the Wildcats through April 27. Then both teams are hoping for the playoffs.
