Preview: Leeds vs. Jasper

Leeds is 3-0 against Jasper since February of 2023, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Tuesday. The Leeds Greenwave will be playing in front of their home fans against the Jasper Vikings at 5:00 p.m. Hopefully Leeds is not getting complacent considering they own a much higher rank in Alabama (they are ranked 49th, while Jasper is ranked 154th).

Leeds used a slightly different lineup for their bout with Ramsay. Jaydin Burrell made the most of the opportunity, scoring a goal and five steals. A few more games like that and she might be seeing even more time going forward.
