“The girls stayed plugged in and kept focused,” said Allen Community College head coach Jeremy McGinnis. “We have a focused, winning attitude which is crucial this time of year.”

Allen clinched the top seed in the region and the Kansas Jayhawk Conference championship. The Lady Red Devils will have home-field advantage until the district playoffs begin.

Allen finishes the regular season on a seven-game winning streak. The Lady Red Devils have not allowed a goal since Oct. 9. 

Allen will host Highland Community College Wednesday in the first round of the playoffs. Allen played Highland twice this season, winning both games.
