What has been a historic season for the Branson Pirates Soccer Program ends in the semi-final of the Class 3 District Tournament in Springfield Monday night.

The Pirates lost to Springfield Catholic at Glendale High School 5-1 as the Irish avenge an earlier loss to the Pirates. This is the second year in a row the Irish has avenged a regular season loss to the Pirates in the District semi-finals and denying a second appearance in a District Title match in three years for the Pirates. Branson played for their first District title in 2019. 

Despite the loss, the Pirate program set a new mark for the program by sharing the Central Ozark Conference title with Republic. The co-championship was the first in the history of the program. In addition, Pirate standout Carlton Epps set several records including the career goal scoring record. 

The Pirate season ends with an 18-6 overall mark, the win total falling one shy of the most wins in a season behind the 19 wins in 2019.
