On Monday, January 9, the McKinney Christian Academy Middle School boys’ soccer team faced off against Dallas Covenant. The Mustangs ended up losing to Dallas Covenant with a score of 4-2 despite the Mustangs having a low number of players. The leading scorer for the Mustangs was 6th grader Trase Ackmann with 2 goals. When asked about how the game went, sixth grader Luke Wilson said, “I really liked how we played, especially with not having a lot of our players we fought hard and gave ourselves a chance to win.”

The Mustangs next game will be Friday, January 12, against Parish.
