The Ezekiel Academy Knights are taking a road trip to square off against the Evangel Christian Lightning at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Ezekiel Academy is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 4.6 goals per game this season.

Ezekiel Academy is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Alabama's top teams: Springwood, who was ranked 11th at the time (Ezekiel Academy was ranked 18th). The Knights and the Wildcats finished up their matchup with a 2-2 draw on Tuesday. The result (or lack thereof) marked Ezekiel Academy's first draw of the season.

TJ Beeker was the only thing that stood between Ezekiel Academy and a shutout considering he scored both of Ezekiel Academy's goals, bringing his season total up to three goals.

Meanwhile, Evangel Christian kept a clean sheet against Springwood on Monday. They were the clear victors by a 3-0 margin over the Wildcats. Considering Evangel Christian have won three contests by more than two goals this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

The win got Evangel Christian back to even at 4-4-1. Ezekiel Academy's draw gives them a new season record of 6-1-1.

Everything went Ezekiel Academy's way against Evangel Christian in their previous meeting back in March, as Ezekiel Academy made off with a 6-1 victory. In that game, the Knights amassed a halftime lead of 4-0, an impressive feat they'll look to repeat on Thursday.
