GIRLS SOCCER: The girls soccer team posted two shut-outs in the first week of section tournaments. The team, #4 seed in the section, was scheduled to meet #1 seed Lourdes Tuesday afternoon in Rochester. The winner of that contest advances to the championship game Thursday and will meet either Byron (#3) or La Crescent (#4). Details on upcoming games will be posted at www.hometownargus.com.
CHS 12, Red Wing 0
The girls had no problem getting past #13 Red Wing on Thursday.
The girls scored five points in the first half and seven in the second.
CHS 5, Winona Cotter 0
During the the first half of the game against #5 Cotter on Saturday, Caledonia was playing against the wind and managed just one goal. When the teams switched directions at the half, Coach Link told her players she wanted the score to end at 5 or 6 to 0. They obliged with four more goals and shut down Cotterís offense.

BOYS SOCCER: The Caledonia boys soccer team got off to a great start in its post-season.
The Warriors, seeded number three in Section 1A, beat Lake City 9-0 on October 13, then edged Winona High School 2-1 on October 15, both at home.
That set up a rematch with La Crescent a semi-final game against second-seeded and arch-rival La Crescent on October 18. The winner advances to the finals on Thursday between the winner of the Austin-Rochester Lourdes game. The time and location is yet to be determined. If Lourdes beats Austin, they will host the game because they are the number one seed. If number four deeded Austin wins, they would travel to the La Crescent-Caledonia winner.
