Coach Todd Rodgers said after the game that it was important for his team to get the victory after the way the season started. Argyle lost its first two games and had last week’s game canceled due to inclement weather.
“We knew the baptism would take a few weeks,” Rodgers said. “It certainly was tough to handle as a head coach and it was tough to handle for our players. But they showed some resolve and they showed some conviction in uniting our team. And our team pulled together. We had lots of leadership step up and say it’s not going to happen on our watch. We had to go through that little baptism to solidify our team and I think we are in a good spot. We still have a long ways to go, but I think we are headed in the right direction.”
Argyle (1-2, 0-0) will host Frisco Memorial at 7 p.m. on Sept. 22.
