The Brownwood Lions are off and running in the 12-game District 5-4A campaign as they opened league action with a 3-0 victory over the Lampasas Badgers Friday night at Gordon Wood Stadium.
The Lions (5-7-1, 1-0) scored once in the first half on a penalty kick goal by Junior Martinez, and tacked on a pair of second-half insurance goals provided by Noah Barron, on a header, and Raven Prado.
Defensively, Wyatt Jackson picked up the shutout in goal.
The Lions will shoot for a second consecutive district victory – and third win in a row overall – at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday when they visit China Spring.
