On Tuesday night the 6A state champion Coppell Cowboys Varsity soccer team beat Berkner, four goals to none, and moved into first place in the district standings.

Four minutes into the game Nick Taylor gave Coppell the lead after a powerful run and strike from 20 yards.  Two minutes later, Bennett Hunter scored to double Coppell’s lead.  From that point forward Coppell dominated the game.  Shortly before the half time break, Coppell further extended their lead when Bennett Hunter scored his second goal of the game.

Early in the second half Bishesh Manandhar scored the goal of the night. His electrifying volley from outside the penalty box rocketed into the top of the net giving the keeper no chance to stop it.   Coppell continued to dominate the game, but was unable to add to their lead.

For his two goals and intelligent play at midfield, Bennett Hunter was named Player of the Game.
