SHERIDAN — The 2021 Sheridan High School girls soccer team knew they were capable of beating Cheyenne Central, though they hadn’t accomplished such a feat since 2015, according to head coach Kevin Rizer. An early goal from freshman Emma Prior in the first half set the tone for the contest, as the Lady Broncs stormed the field following a 2-1 win over the Lady Indians — their first victory against Central in five seasons. 

“It’s huge,” Rizer said. “Over the past five years, four years I’ve been here, they’ve been the best team in the state.”

The Lady Broncs suspected their game against Central would be one of possession, anticipating a close game because their matchup earlier in April took overtime to decide a 2-1 Central win, and Rizer said Sheridan tends to play “really well” against the Lady Indians.
