The Nebraska School Activities Association released the 2014 Class A district soccer pairings on Wednesday and both the North Platte High School boys and girls will go on the road for next week’s  postseason play.

The North Platte Bulldogs boys soccer team is 19th in the NSAA wildcard point standings. The Dawgs currently have a record of 5-9, which has changed due to Lexington having to forfeit all of their games this season because of an ineligible player. North Platte lost 2-1 to Lexington early in the season, without the forfeit the Dawgs would be 4-10. With the 19th place in the point standings North Platte earned a No. 3 seed in the district tournament. The Dawgs will travel to Grand Island, who is hosting the A-6 District. North Platte as the No. 3 seed will play second-seeded Papillion La Vista South (9-5) at 7:00 pm on Monday, May 5. The host school and No. 1 seeded Grand Island (9-5) will play No. 4 Lincoln High (6-9) at 5:00 pm on Monday. The winners of the first round games will advance to the district final and play for a chance to go to the Class A State Tournament on Thursday. The district final will be played at Memorial Stadium in Grand Island at 7:00 pm Thursday, May 8. The boys A-6 bracket can be seen below.

The North Platte Lady Bulldogs are 10-4 on the season and sit 10th in the NSAA wildcard point standing. The Lady Dawgs earned a No. 2 seed in the A-5 District, which will be played at Ted Baldwin Park in Kearney. North Platte will play third-seeded Omaha Burke (5-10) at 7:00 pm Monday, May 5.
