Soccer Preview: Middleton vs. Vallivue
The Middleton Vikings will head out on the road to take on the Vallivue Falcons at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Middleton is looking to tack another W on to their season record, something they couldn't quite do against Columbia on Thursday. Both 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 Vallivue). They never let Emmett onto the board and left with an 11-0 victory on Saturday. Given the Falcons' advantage in MaxPreps' Idaho soccer rankings (they are ranked 15th, while the Huskies are ranked 71st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
With that draw, Middleton's record moves to 1-7-1. As for Vallivue, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 4-1-2 record this season.
Middleton suffered a grim 4-0 defeat to Vallivue in their previous matchup two weeks ago. Can Middleton avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
