Clarke Central High School boys varsity soccer player Niko Cope prepares to kick the ball during a game against Cedar Shoals High School in Water-Wilkins Stadium on Feb. 10. CCHS drew 3-3 against CSHS, which CCHS midfielder Iber Alexis Martinez-Estrada, a senior, felt the game was a challenge. “(The) rivalry game has a lot of history, not just for soccer, for every sport. When Central plays Cedar at any sports game of course the energy is going to be different,” Martinez-Estrada said. “It was a very intense game but (it) was just a preparation for our first region game coming up.” Photos by Izzy Duncan
