Buffalo HS Boys and Girls Soccer: They are the defending 3A state champs, and so far the Buffalo boys soccer team has taken everyone’s best shot this season.

The Bison have put together a record of 11 wins and 3 losses and have the #1 seed out of the East heading into the state tournament, which starts tomorrow in Gillette.

Head Coach Dick Edgcomb says the team lost its share of seniors and talent from last year’s championship run and the new crop has had to learn on the go, but so far they’ve done well.

Buffalo opens the state tournament against Powell tomorrow at 11am.

As for the Lady Bison, they’ve already done better than last year, and they’re not done yet.

The team was the #4 seed out of the East and finished as consolation champs last time around, and this time they have the #1 spot with a record of 9-5.

Head Coach Scott Berglund says one of the keys to this year’s success is that the girls have been spreading the ball around.

Buffalo plays in the first game of the 3A Girls State Tournament tomorrow at 9am vs. Mountain View.
