Soccer Preview: ThunderRidge vs. Legacy

The ThunderRidge Grizzlies will head out on the road to challenge the Legacy Lightning at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. ThunderRidge is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 3.7 goals per game this season.

ThunderRidge stacked a sixth blowout win onto their ever-increasing hoard on Wednesday. They put the hurt on Ponderosa with a sharp 3-0 victory. Given ThunderRidge's advantage in MaxPreps' Colorado soccer rankings (they are ranked fifth, while Ponderosa is ranked 60th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

ThunderRidge hit Ponderosa with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Reese Clem, Kaitlyn Holmberg, and Kacey Harvey.

Meanwhile, Legacy and Rocky Mountain finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw on Thursday.

The win made it two in a row for ThunderRidge and bumps their season record up to 9-2-2. Legacy's draw makes their record 6-3-4 this season.

ThunderRidge took their victory against Legacy in their previous meeting back in April of 2023 by a conclusive 4-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for ThunderRidge since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
