Soccer Game Preview: Limestone Takes on Bloomington

The Limestone Rockets will take on the Bloomington Purple Raiders at 10:10 a.m. on Saturday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.

Limestone took care of business in their home opener on Wednesday (and then some). They never let Illinois Valley Central onto the board and left with a 7-0 victory.

Limestone's offense was hitting Illinois Valley Central from everywhere, as six different players booted in a goal. Joey Shields led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by himself.

Meanwhile, Bloomington waltzed into their matchup on Thursday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They were the clear victor by a 9-0 margin over the Spartans. Give the Purple Raiders' defense some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.
