Soccer Preview: Ripley vs. Hernando
The Ripley Tigers will face off against the Hernando Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
After dropping their season opener at home, Hernando is headed out to face a Ripley squad ready to give their home crowd a win. Ripley fell just short of Booneville by a score of 2-1 on Monday.
Meanwhile, Hernando had to start their season on the road on Thursday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. While the 2-2 score might suggest a draw, it was New Albany who was credited with the victory. New Albany got it done in the shootout by posting four goals to Hernando's two. One thing that didn't help the Tigers' chances was the red card they were dealt courtesy of Parks Raffety.
Calvin Harrison wasn't going to let New Albany walk away unscathed as he scored both of Hernando's goals.
Ripley might still be hurting after the 6-1 defeat they got from Hernando when the teams last played back in November of 2017. Will Ripley have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other soccer content.
