BOYS
The win streak reaches 3 for the TFS Indians, who produced a 5-1 road win Tuesday at Athens Christian to open region play. Sean Lynes, Jr. kept his hot streak alive as well, scoring 4 times to lead Tallulah Falls.
Lynes, Jr. tallied a PK, a beautiful free kick goal, another intelligent play to keep it alive on an assist from Jared Mullis, and a fourth on a lob over the keeper which came on the back end of a lofted through by Austin Ball.
Jackson Cording recorded the other TFS goal for his first varsity score. Cording found the back of the net after a scramble in the box following a corner kick.
“Overall the team played well,” says coach Jeremy Stille. “We worked hard and fought to get our first region win.”
With the 4-goal game, Lynes, Jr. sets a new career-high, which is one goal shy of the school single-game record. He now has 10 goals on the season through 4 games played. The Indians are 3-0-1 overall and 1-0 in region play and will take on #7-ranked Athens Academy at home on Friday.

The Lady Indians put on an offensive presentation Tuesday night at Athens Christian, scoring 10 goals in a clean-sheet win that fell one goal shy of the program record.
TFS scored 5 goals in each half and held a 5-0 advantage heading into the halftime break. They doubled that effort in the second half to secure the team’s second win of the season.
Goals came in bunches, as Addie Higbie, Honora Kahwach, and Kat Williams all notched hat tricks with 3 apiece. Maddie Mullis had the other goal for the Lady Indians. Assists were recorded by Genna Farris (2), Jenna Chesser, Lily Desta, and Honora Kahwach.
Meanwhile, the defense was spectacular and kept the Athens Christian offense at bay. Kyndal Anderson recorded her first clean sheet of the season and the third of her career.
Higbie’s 3 goals move her to 11 on the season, which ranks second-most in a single season behind Maria Whitson’s (’17) 15 tallies. Kahwach matches her career-high with 7 goals on the season and gets her to 23 career, which has her just 3 shy of Ashton Boyd’s (’12-’14) mark of 26.
The Lady Indians are 2-2 overall and now 1-0 in region play. They’ll take on #3-ranked Athens Academy on Friday at home.
