Soccer Preview: Jefferson vs. Hononegah

Suggested Video

Jefferson has gone 6-1 against Hononegah recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Jefferson J-Hawks will square off against the Hononegah Indians at 6:30 p.m. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Jefferson is leaving town to face Hononegah after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Jefferson fell just short of Rockford East by a score of 1-0 on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Hononegah lost 5-1 to Moline on Saturday. The Indians have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Their goal came courtesy of Caden Lucchesi, which was the first he's scored this season.

Jefferson came out on top in a nail-biter against Hononegah in their previous meeting back in August of 2023, sneaking past 2-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Jefferson since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
