"We have been extremely proud of our young men this season," said head coach Luke Shoemaker. "Obviously the results have been there, but we have much larger goals and greater tests ahead. We want to continue to grow, progress, and maximize our potential heading into state. I believe we are capable of playing even better soccer and we are going to continue to work towards that."

The Panthers scored all three of their goals in the first half against Greenbrier (2-4-1, 2-3) on Thursday night.

Ivan Sandoval's goal off a Franklin Cortez assist in the third minute put Siloam Springs in front 1-0.

Cortez scored on a penalty kick in the 22nd minute for a 2-0 lead.

Sam Jackson assisted to Junior Garza on another goal in the 29th minute.
