Soccer Preview: Lake vs. Field

Suggested Video

Lake has been on the road for three straight, but on Thursday they'll finally head home. They will host the Field Falcons at 7:00 p.m.

Last Thursday, Lake came up short against Marlington and fell 3-1. While losing is never fun, the Blue Streaks can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 289th, while the Dukes are ranked 82nd).

Meanwhile, Field waltzed into their matchup on Tuesday with six straight wins... but they left with seven. They never let the Ravens onto the board and left with a 10-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Falcons, who have now won seven contests by three goals or more so far this season.

Their offense was hitting Ravenna from everywhere, as eight different players booted in a goal. Gavin Phillips led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by himself.

Lake's loss dropped their record down to 3-6-1. As for Field, their victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 11-1.

Everything went Lake's way against Field in their previous matchup back in October of 2017, as Lake made off with a 4-0 win. Will Lake repeat their success, or does Field have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
