Preview: Mesa vs. Perry

The Mesa Jackrabbits will head out on the road to square off against the Perry Pumas at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Mesa will be looking to extend their current five-game winning streak.

Last Saturday, Mesa faced Sunnyside in a battle between two of the state's top teams. Mesa had just enough and edged Sunnyside out 2-1. Mesa's winning goal came courtesy of Giovanni Fierro.

In what's become a running theme this season, Perry gave their fans yet another huge victory on Saturday. They were the clear victor by a 4-0 margin over Sunnyslope. The result kept Perry happy, as they haven't lost a game since January 11th.

Mesa pushed their record up to 16-2-1 with that win, which was their third straight on the road. As for Perry, they are on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight matches, which provided a nice bump to their 16-4-2 record this season.

Mesa skirted past Perry 2-1 in their previous matchup back in December of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Mesa since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
