Both teams are off to solid starts in the 2015-16 season, but with district play beginning it was important that both teams get wins, and they did just that.
The Minden Crimson Tide and Lady Tider soccer teams were in action Monday for their first district contests against the Bossier Bearkats and Lady Bearkats.
