The Tri-Central Trojans are on the road again on Saturday to play the Wapahani Raiders at 10:00 a.m.

Kaleb Keihn and
Hunter Rodeffer scored both of Wapahani's goals, bringing their combined season tally to nine goals.
Tri-Central's defeat ended a four-game streak of away wins and brought them to 6-3. Wapahani's draw gives them a new season record of 6-2-1.
Tri-Central was able to grind out a solid victory over Wapahani in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, winning 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Tri-Central since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
