Preview: Tamalpais vs. Newark Memorial

The Tamalpais Red Tailed Hawks will take on the Newark Memorial Cougars at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Hopefully Tamalpais is not getting complacent considering they own a much higher rank in California (they are ranked 81st, while Newark Memorial is ranked 246th).

With a playoff game on the line, Tamalpais rose to the challenge on Tuesday. Everything went their way against the Vikings as they made off with a 4-1 victory. The high-scoring effort was just what Tamalpais needed considering they were shutout in their previous match.

They were led to victory by the tag-team duo of Julia "Big Game" Costle and Maren "Agent M" Jones, who scored all four of Tamalpais' goals. The pair have combined for a total of 26 so far this season.

Meanwhile, Newark Memorial has not lost a match since January 18th, a trend which continued in their latest game on Tuesday. They and Redwood finished up their matchup with a 1-1 draw. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time Newark Memorial has been dealt a draw since back in December of 2023.

Tamalpais is on a roll lately: they've won 11 of their last 13 contests, which provided a nice bump to their 12-4-5 record this season. Newark Memorial's draw gives them a new season record of 14-3-2.
