Before beginning its head-to-head matches, the Leopards will play one more tournament today in Forney after posting a 6-1 record in its first two tournaments. The Leopards’ first matchup will be against the Rockwall Yellowjackets (2-6).

Senior Christian Kwon said that although his team is not familiar with its first opponent, Rockwall, he sees the tournament as an opportunity to grow.

“I’m ready to see how the past two tournaments have prepared us for the Forney tournament,” Kwon said. “We don’t know much about Rockwall, but it should be a good game that will allow us to get out and run.”

In the Georgetown tournament, the Leopards went 3-0, and in the Allen

tournament, they went 3-1.

In the Leopards’ final game of the Allen tournament, they earned a win against 6A Plano East. Senior captain Max Pabin scored the lone goal of the game as the Leopards defeated the Panthers 1-0.

“In The Allen tournament, we got some good looks from decent teams,” Pabin said. “Getting a win against a 6A team like Plano East is always good.”

Joe Vastano, Staff Writer
Joe Vastano is your average Joe. He is a senior who really likes sports, fishing, and running. Texas A&M is his favorite college, so he cheers for them in any sport, especially football and basketball. Joe has also grown up as a Dallas fan, so the Cowboys and Mavericks will always be his pro teams. When he is not watching sports, he is playing them. His favorite is basketball, and he can be found playing it at any rec center or gym in the area. Joe is hoping that his lengthy time as a staff writer, and his previous term as editor-in-chief of Leopard Life in middle school will pay off in his last go around. Joe is looking forward to grand finale year with his equally superior right hand man Drew Doig.
