The fifth-seeded Chieftains lost to the third-seeded Cougars 1-0 earlier this season, but were able to avenge that defeat and keep their season alive Tuesday.
“It was a well played game by both teams,” said BHS head coach Matt Price. “I am happy for our girls to get this win. It’s been a year of a lot of adversity with a number of injuries and illness. It would have been easy to call it a year, but they were determined to battle back and get that elusive win at Kenton Ridge.”
