THS fell to Baldwin, 1-0, Thursday at Beatty Field. After a scoreless first half, the Bulldogs eventually scored and then held on.

A few days earlier, the school board approved head coach Michael Barnes’ resignation as both boys and girls soccer coach.

THS assistant Mandi Duggan continues to coach the team with help from former head coach Jon Orndorff, who coached the Chieftains the past four seasons on the boys side before stepping down with a family move to Nebraska. Orndorff also helped Barnes in the spring in Barnes’ first year leading the girls program. Barnes replaced Justin Seever as girls coach.

Against Baldwin, THS had nine shots on goal, but just couldn’t convert. Lukas Parizek had the most shots on goal with four. Brenan Kuzmic had three shots on goal, while Jackson McWilliams and Daniel Zesati had one each. McWilliams also had 14 saves while allowing the one goal in the second half.

THS fell to 3-3-1 in Frontier League play and 7-6-1 overall with the loss to Baldwin, which improved to 6-1-1 and 9-2-1.
