Regular Season Play
Having been on a roll for several seasons, it comes as no surprise that the Celina Lady Bobcats have been able to boast a 19-2-2 overall record (13-0-1 in district play) this season.

With the fire and expectation set, the Lady Bobcats went on to showcase many more powerful performances including a 4-0 victory over Aubrey, a 9-0 victory over Farmersville, a 15-0 victory over Pilot Point, and other strong wins. Lead by strong athletes like Kaitlyn Gustofson, Claire Flowers, Makenna Brantley, Brookelyn Babb, Lauren Howell, and others, this team has outscored their opponents by a resounding 121-6 goals combined as they head into the playoffs on a 12 game win-streak.
What's Ahead
Embracing a tradition of excellence, the Celina Lady Bobcats have surged over recent seasons. Showcasing their dominance through district play with a flawless record, the team can be expected to perform the same in post-season play. With the ability to rally with resilience and overpower formidable opponents with standout performances from impressive athletes, fans can be sure that this team is poised for playoff success.
The team is scheduled to take on Sunnyvale on the road in Sunnyvale on Tuesday, March 26th with a start time of 5:30 p.m.
