Saint Francis is 8-1-1 against Junipero Serra since April of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Saturday. The Lancers will square off against the Padres at 11:00 a.m. Saint Francis is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 3.3 goals per game this season.

Saint Francis took a three-goal loss the last time they faced off against Bellarmine College Prep, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference.

The final result isn't all that surprising considering Saint Francis' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 70th, while Bellarmine College Prep are ranked 367th).

Saint Francis' one-goal win came courtesy of Michael Scavotto, who's now up to nine this season.
