Niwot High School girls soccer loses 2, falls to 1-4

The Niwot High School girls soccer team came out of spring break with a two-game week against two tough opponents. The first game was against the eighth-ranked Mead High School Mavericks on March 29, where the Cougars lost 6-0, and the second was against the Silver Creek High School Raptors on April 1, where Niwot fell 3-0.

The two losses pile onto a losing streak that has grown to four games as Niwot is 1-4 on the season after a strong opening performance. However, Niwot's first five games of the season are against out-of-league opponents who rank highly in their own leagues. Niwot's schedule loosens up next week.

Next up are the Mountain View High School Mountain Lions on April 4 and the Severance High School Silver Knights on April 6, with both teams having a combined 1 win so far this season.
