Soccer Game Preview: Wheat Ridge vs. Standley Lake

For the first time this season, Wheat Ridge will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will face off against the Standley Lake Gators at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Meanwhile, for the first time this season, Standley Lake was forced to settle for a draw. They and Eagle Valley finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw last Thursday.

Wheat Ridge now has a losing record of 1-2-2. With that draw, Standley Lake's record moves to 2-1-1.
