Soccer Preview: Louisville vs. Lake

Suggested Video

Louisville has enjoyed a three-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will venture away from home to take on the Lake Blue Streaks at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. One thing working in Louisville's favor is that they have posted at least four goals in their last three matches.

Louisville's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Wednesday. They were the clear victor by a 6-0 margin over Mapleton. It was an even better day for Kasey Lint as she scored three goals for her team.

Meanwhile, Saturday just wasn't the day for Lake's offense. They lost 9-0 to Howland on Saturday. While losing is never fun, the Blue Streaks can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 257th, while the Tigers are ranked 43rd).

Louisville's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-1-1. As for Lake, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-6-1.

Louisville beat Lake by a goal in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, winning 2-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Louisville since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
