With Teche Area high school football wrapping up last week, the fall sports of volleyball, football and cross country came to an end and the winter sports in the area, boys’ and girls’ basketball and boys’ and girls’ soccer, moved to the forefront of the prep sports calendar for the 2019-20 school year.

Monday night, three of the four major winter sports were in action as Highland Baptist Lady Bears played host to Cecilia in girls’ soccer and Jeanerette in girls’ basketball while Catholic High girls’ soccer traveled down Admiral Doyle to play New Iberia Senior High and the Catholic High boys’ basketball team played host to ESA.

Basketball and soccer will remain in the forefront in the area through December, January and February with the soccer postseason taking place in late February and the basketball playoffs taking place in early March.
