In the seventh episode of Friday Knight Lights, hosts Julia Copas and Callen Romell talked with freshman Kaylee Breecker about about making varsity her first year, getting a love for soccer from her dad and the friendliness of the team. 

Breecker had already secured her spot on varsity, but due to injuries she was moved up to be a starter. The Knights had a historic season, advancing in playoffs to the Sweet 16 for the first time in McCallum history. McCallum started its playoff run with a 1-0 win over Pflugerville, and then beat Victoria West 2-0 in area, which secured a spot in the Sweet 16 against Barbers Hill, who ended the Knights’ historic run with a 2-0 win. Last year, the Knights also advanced to the third round of playoffs, but due to new UIL division splits, each playoff bracket had fewer teams, and the third round became the Sweet 16.
