South Tahoe's girls soccer team set to defend state title Saturday

Despite injuries which sidelined several varsity players, the South Tahoe Vikings' girls soccer team beat Spring Valley Friday afternoon, earning them a spot in the state final for Division 1-A teams.

The final score was South Tahoe 3, Spring Valley 1.

Earlier in the day, Truckee lost to Faith Lutheran 2-1.

South Tahoe Vikings are looking to three-peat as the Nevada Division I-A State Champs, and a win on Saturday would give them four state titles in just five years.

The game against Faith Lutheran starts at 10 a.m. at South Tahoe High. Tickets are $10 each for adults, $5 for kids. Since this is a division game, South Tahoe Booster passes are not valid for admission.
