Holland
Christian began district play on Tuesday night against their rivals
from Holland High. In the two regular season matches, the Maroons
defeated the Dutch 3-2 and then 3-0.
Both
teams came out with a lot of energy, as both of their postseason
lives relied on this match. The Dutch had four corner kicks in the
first half, but the tough Maroon defense was able to keep the game
scoreless heading into halftime.

minutes of consistent pressure and tough defense, the Maroons
finished with the 1-0 victory.
