Both soccer
teams knew they were headed to the 9th Region Tournament.
It was just
a matter of pride and momentum unlike previous years in the old 19th District
with Bishop Brossart and Campbell County.
The Newport
Central Catholic Lady Breds came away with both in a 2-0 victory at Tower Park
on Thursday. NewCath (12-5-1 overall) won its first district championship since
2005 and snapped a run of six consecutive district titles for the Ladybirds
(3-10-3). Heavy thunder and lightning forced the cancellation of the regular
season meeting for the two squads.
