Orono is 1-9 against Bucksport since June of 2018 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Friday. The Orono Riots will head out on the road to take on the Bucksport Golden Bucks at 1:00 p.m. Bucksport took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Orono, who comes in off a win.

While Riots fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Saturday's season opener. They walked away with a 5-2 victory over North Yarmouth Academy on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Bucksport couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They fell just short of Ellsworth by a score of 9-8 on Wednesday.

Orono might still be hurting after the 12-4 defeat they got from Bucksport in their previous matchup back in June of 2023. Can Orono avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
