EDMOND — Deer Creek’s girls’ soccer team learned a lot about itself in a humbling out-of-state tournament appearance last weekend.

The Antlers, who host Carl Albert on Tuesday, lost all three of their games at the Heart of America Classic in Kansas City, Mo., but senior Madison Smith said the games were good for her team.

“I thought we did good for the most part against the teams we played,” Smith said.

The tournament features several of the top girls’ soccer teams in middle America. For Deer Creek, it was a chance to play tougher competition.

The Antlers entered the tournament having won each of its last three games 10-0.

“(We learned) the levels of experience on the team,” Smith said. “There’s some pretty wide gaps; we have some freshmen trying to step into important roles.”
