Giddings barely beat La Grange the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. Giddings' defense stepped up to hand La Grange a 7-0 shutout on Monday. Considering the Buffaloes have won 12 matchups by more than two goals this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
They hit La Grange with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Jaida Rodea (4), Matilda Bautista, Audrey Nicks, and Kelby Cowen.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Salado). They put the hurt on Taylor with a sharp 12-0 win on Tuesday. Give the Eagles' defense some credit: that's the team's 17th straight shutout.
Salado pushed their record up to 22-3 with the victory, which was their tenth straight at home. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up zero goals over those ten contests. As for Giddings, their win bumped their record up to 14-5.
