Sidney splits match against Lima Shawnee

“It was a good match for us,” Sidney coach Trent Knoop said. “Spare shooting wasn’t the greatest, but we made up for it with strikes. Overall it was good.”

“I think our mental games weren’t the strongest today,” Knoop said. “It led to a lot of opens. But we just need to keep fighting and bounce back against Xenia on Thursday.”
