The Central Columbia Bluejays are on the road again on Monday to play the Pottsville Crimson Tide at 5:00 p.m. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.

Central Columbia's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Thursday. They put the hurt on Danville with a sharp 4-0 victory. Given the Bluejays' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania soccer rankings (they are ranked eighth, while the Ironmen are ranked 324th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Central Columbia hit Danville with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Reese Hons (2), Haley Bull, and Bull.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Pottsville). They were the clear victor by a 15-0 margin over Marian Catholic last Thursday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.

Central Columbia pushed their record up to 10-1 with the victory, which was their fifth straight on the road. As for Pottsville, they have been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five games, which provided a nice bump to their 7-3-1 record this season.
