Lady Chaps’ Historic Season Marks the Beginning of Great Things Coach Baker reports: What a historic season it was for the Lady Chaps soccer program. Though it ended with a loss in the Class 4A Division II state semifinal to a defensively strong Randall High School, the team gave it everything they had. The Lady Chaps battled hard Friday night in a tightly contested match, with few scoring chances for either side. Ultimately, a well-placed free kick proved to be the difference, and despite their best efforts, the Lady Chaps were unable to find an equalizer. It was an incredible run for the program, especially in just its second year of UIL eligibility. The team posted an 18-4 record, scored 90 goals while allowing just 33, finished second in district and advanced to the fifth round of the playoffs — all improvements from last season. We extend our sincere thanks to all the parents and community members who showed up in support throughout the year. Special appreciation goes to the Aubrey ISD administration for its continued support. And to our six seniors — thank you for helping build this program from the ground up. Your leadership has laid the foundation and set the standard for all future Lady Chaps to follow.

Polen Advances to Regionals, Bartel Finishes Strong at District 9-4A Championship The past two days, the Aubrey boys golf team competed in the District 9-4A Championship at Westridge Golf Club. All players battled through a tough course, facing brutal winds on Day 2. I was proud of how they fought through adversity and represented Aubrey ISD in a professional manner. Luke Bartel, the team’s lone senior, placed eighth overall with a two-day total of 179. Luke has been a key part of our golf program for the past three years and will be greatly missed.
