Soccer Preview: Clayton vs. Smithfield-Selma

Suggested Video

Clayton has played every game this season on their home pitch, but they'll have to hit the road on Wednesday. They are headed away from home for the first time to face off against the Smithfield-Selma Spartans at 6:30 p.m. Clayton is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 2.8 goals per game this season.

Clayton is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Heritage just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Wednesday. They fell 4-2 to the Huskies. The loss was the Comets' first of the season.

Christopher Serrano and Cameron Allen scored both of Clayton's goals, bringing their combined season tally to ten goals.

Meanwhile, for the first time this season, Smithfield-Selma was forced to settle for a draw. Neither they nor North Johnston could gain the upper hand on Monday so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw.

Having lost for the first time this season, Clayton fell to 4-1. With that draw, Smithfield-Selma's record moves to 3-3-1.
