Soccer Game Preview: Battle Ground vs. Camas

Battle Ground hasn't had much luck against Camas recently, but that could start to change on Friday. The Tigers will head out to square off against the Papermakers at 7:00 p.m. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Battle Ground is headed into Friday's match looking for a big change in momentum after dropping their fourth straight game on Wednesday. They came up short against Union, falling 4-1. While losing is never fun, Battle Ground can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Washington soccer rankings (they are ranked 199th, while Union are ranked 33rd).

Camas, on the other hand, haven't lost since March 22nd and they too continued that trend. Neither they nor Skyview could gain the upper hand on Wednesday so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw.

Battle Ground's loss dropped their record down to 3-7. Camas' draw makes their record 6-2-5 this season.

Battle Ground might still be hurting after the 9-0 defeat they got from Camas in their previous matchup back in May of 2024. Can the Tigers avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
