San Marcos beats Cibolo Steele for third-straight win

Racing to the playoffs can be daunting. But on Friday night, the Rattlers were the ones bringing the pressure.

Against Cibolo Steele inside San Marcos Toyota Rattler Stadium, head coach Lisa Mazur wanted her team to push farther up the field to keep the ball on the Knights’ side of the pitch. The longer the ball stayed there, the more likely the Rattlers would score.

The high-pressure strategy worked, as the hosts outscored the visitors 2-1 to remain tied for fourth place in the district, still in contention for the postseason.
