Posted

Plano handed Mendota a 2-1 defeat in varsity girls’ soccer action on March 20 at Plano.

The Lady Reapers took a 1-0 lead with a goal just four minutes into the match.

The scored stayed that way until the second half when a corner kick from Mendota’s Piper Artman connected with Amellia Bromenschenkel, who beat the Plano goalie to knot the match.

But Plano scored on a late free kick to claim the narrow victory.
