Preview: Oglethorpe County vs. Monroe Area

The Oglethorpe County Patriots will head out on the road to square off against the Monroe Area Purple Hurricanes at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday.

Oglethorpe County had to start their season on the road on Friday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of Madison County by a score of 1-0.

Meanwhile, Monroe Area had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4.5 goals), and they went ahead and made it three on Tuesday. They were the clear victor by a 4-0 margin over Social Circle. Four seems to be a good number for Monroe Area as the team scooped up a win with the same number of goals in their previous game.

They were led to victory by the tag-team duo of Gabriel Portillo and Juan Martinez, who scored all four of Monroe Area's goals. The pair have combined for a total of nine so far this season.
