Suggested Video

The Exeter Monarchs will take on the Strathmore Spartans in a holiday battle at at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Having lost for the first time this season, Exeter fell to 6-1-1. With that draw, Strathmore's record moves to 0-7-4.

Exeter took their win against Strathmore when the teams last played back in December of 2022 by a conclusive 5-0. Will Exeter repeat their success, or does Strathmore have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
