The victory improved the Lady Cats district record to 3-1. The Lady Cats are now 7-7-1 for the season.

Coach Aguayo said his halftime talk to the team was to put the first half behind them and to focus on playing the way they know how to play. He said during the second half, the Lady Cats were able to break down the Lady Tigers pressing game and got things going in their favor.
He added the Lady Cats controlled the game a bit more in the second half and were able to score two goals. Freshman Rebekah Stanley scored the unassisted tying goal. Haley Robinson put the Lady cats ahead with a goal assisted by Stanley.
