Soccer Game Preview: Lourdes vs. Holy Family Catholic

The Lourdes Eagles are taking a road trip to challenge the Holy Family Catholic Fire at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Lourdes can't be too happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Thursday. They fell just short of St. Paul Academy-Summit by a score of 1-0.

Meanwhile, Holy Family Catholic kicked off their season on Thursday but they'll have to wait until their next matchup for a more definitive result. Neither they nor Cristo Rey Jesuit could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 3-3 draw.

Lourdes came out on top in a nail-biter against Holy Family Catholic in their previous matchup back in September of 2024, sneaking past 1-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Eagles since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
