It appears the Lacy Chiefs and maybe also the Boys, are hungry for a title again this year. While its an odd year post Covid-19, with abridged schedules and no fans in the stadiums this year could indeed be a year to remember for the Apache Chiefs Boys and Girls Teams. Both are now 4 and 0 for the season and are certainly making an impression on all they compete against. Tonight's winning results confirm this is no fluke. (posted Tue. Apr 13 2021)
