"We have a young but talented group of players that always give their best effort," said Girls' Coach Ben Davall. "We have only one senior, and I expect us to only get better in the coming years."
The Lady Dogs - who are 1-0 in region play - have rolled over opponents so far. They dismantled Butler 8-1, before beating Lincoln County 9-1 at home last Friday.
Thomson's boys also blasted Butler, winning 6-3, but they fell to Lincoln County 7-1.
Coach Barry Arrington said Andrew Hamilton, Matt McEver and Josh Withrow have scored for the Dogs, while Jonny Weishedel, Scott McClure and Ryan Cook have been stellar on defense.
