Soccer Game Preview: Ripon Christian vs. Sonora

The Ripon Christian Knights will challenge the Sonora Wildcats at 5:15 p.m. on Friday. Ripon Christian's last five games have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.

Sonora will have to contend with a Ripon Christian squad hungry for a victory, something the team hasn't seen since December 7. Neither Ripon Christian nor Orestimba could gain the upper hand on Wednesday so the two teams had to settle for a 4-4 draw.

Ripon Christian hit Orestimba with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Talen Tameling, Ricky Van Unen, Reagan Sauer, and Colton Veldstra.

Meanwhile, while it was all tied up 1-1 at halftime, Sonora was not quite Ripon's equal in the second half on Friday. They lost 4-1 to the Indians.

Sonora's defeat dropped their record down to 3-9. Ripon Christian's draw gives them a new season record of 5-4-4.
