Indians take deadlock into halftime; Lady Indians suffer first shutout loss of year
DUNCANVILLE — The Waxahachie Indians took a 1-1 tie into halftime on Monday, but the Duncanville Panthers stormed back in the second half with a pair of unanswered goals to hand the Tribe a 3-1 loss in a District 11-6A boys'' soccer make-up game postponed from Friday because of icy roads.
The Indians (6-3-2, 2-2) went on top on a header off a corner kick early in the first half, and kept the upper hand until the Panthers scored the equalizing goal before intermission. Duncanville then took the lead in the second half.
