Xavier Prep’s soccer team will be the No. 2 seed in the 6A
Conference state tournament that begins on Wednesday (Feb. 1). The Arizona
Interscholastic Association announced the brackets on Friday (Jan. 27).
The Gators (10-2-3) will host a first-round match at 6 p.m.
against Mesa Mountain View (11-6-1), the No. 15 seed.
Should Xavier defeat Mountain View, it would host a
quarterfinal match on Feb. 4 against No. 10 Tucson or No. 7 Phoenix Pinnacle. That
would be an afternoon match, likely at 2 p.m. Xavier battled Pinnacle to a 2-2
tie at Pinnacle on Jan. 13.
Xavier’s leaders are sophomore Kyla Ferry, junior Abby
Hubbard, senior Quiqui Hita and junior goalkeeper Kinsey Ehmann. The latter
helped produce a 2-0 shutout win over Chandler Basha in the regular-season
finale on Jan. 24.
