Soccer Preview: Roncalli vs. Speedway
The Roncalli Royals will head out to square off against the Speedway Sparkplugs at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Roncalli is looking to tack another W on to their season record, something they couldn't quite do against Lawrence North on Wednesday. The two teams finished up on equal footing with a 2-2 draw.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Speedway). Their defense stepped up to hand Monrovia a 13-0 shutout on Monday. It was an even better day for Alexander Yohanis as he scored three goals for his team.
Roncalli's draw makes their record 5-8-1 this season. As for Speedway, their win ended a three-game drought on the road and puts them at 7-5-3.
Roncalli skirted past Speedway 1-0 in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Roncalli since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
