Rangers Hand Eagles First Division Loss

Box Score RAYMOND – Amadou Dia and Armando Barron scored within 8 minutes of each other to give Northwest a 2-0 lead that they would hang on to the final 44 minutes in a huge road win at Hinds on Saturday. 

It marked the Rangers' first-ever win in Raymond in 13 tries. 

Northwest improved to 6-7 overall and 2-4 in the north division while Hinds dropped its first north division game to fall to 4-1 and 7-4 overall. 

Dia broke a scoreless game in the 39th minute, scoring off a free kick from Armando Barron into the right side of the net, to make it 1-0 Rangers at the break.

Just 1:51 into the second half, Barron made it 2-0 off an assist from Tyler Gill, more than enough of a lead for goalkeepers Josh Delgado and Matthew Williams.

Delgado had seven saves in 67:10 in net while Williams played the final 22:50 and had three saves to contribute to a combined shutout.

Hinds outshot Northwest 21-10 but was denied on all 10 of its shots on goal. 

Northwest returns to action on Wednesday, Oct. 15 at East Central.
