Soccer Preview: Horizon Science Academy vs. Columbus Academy

Suggested Video

Horizon Science Academy is 0-3 against Columbus Academy since October of 2016 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Saturday. The Horizon Science Academy Hawks will face off against the Columbus Academy Vikings at 11:30 a.m. Horizon Science Academy will be hoping to continue their three-game streak of scoring more goals each contest than the last.

Horizon Science Academy's defense heads into the game hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Wednesday. They were the clear victor by a 5-0 margin over Oakstone Academy. Considering the Hawks have won three matchups by more than three goals this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.

They hit Oakstone Academy with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Abu Bangura (2), Regan Shozi, and Haruna Colley.

Meanwhile, Columbus Academy unfortunately witnessed the end of their three-game winning streak on Thursday. Neither they nor Westland could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 3-3 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Vikings' first draw of the season.

Horizon Science Academy now has a winning record of 3-2. With that draw, Columbus Academy's record moves to 3-1-1.

Horizon Science Academy might still be hurting after the 9-3 defeat they got from Columbus Academy in their previous matchup back in August of 2017. Can Horizon Science Academy avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
