The REPORTER

When it comes to soccer, there will be more Miller Time at Kokomo on Saturday.

The Noblesville boys and girls soccer teams, both defending Class 3A state champions, will play at Kokomo High School’s Walter Cross Field on Saturday in an attempt to return to the state finals. Both teams won dramatic regional championships last Saturday at Kokomo, with the boys and girls teams each winning in penalty kicks to continue their advance through the state tournament.

The No. 1-ranked Millers boys will go first. They will take on No. 9 Lake Central in the 3A north semi-state, which is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. Following that contest, the No. 3-ranked Noblesville girls play No. 9 Crown Point in the 3A north semi-state. That game is scheduled to start at 6 p.m.
