With a winning start, William Carter’s Lady Trojans were ready to step into district play Aug. 21. Millington welcomed to town the preseason favorite Covington Lady Chargers, and the Lady Chargers proved why they are expected to win the district rolling to a 10-1 win over the Lady Trojans. Millington freshman Destiny Jones provided that score for Millington. Jones had two goals in the win over PCA. Lady Trojan senior Chelsea Ferrell led Millington with a hat trick of goals against Power Central.
