Suggested Video

The Shoals Jug Rox are taking a road trip to take on the Bloomfield Cardinals at 6:45 p.m. on Wednesday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

After two halves, Shoals and White River Valley settled for a 1-1 draw.

Shoals' goal came courtesy of Lucas Howell, who's now up to 14 this season.

Meanwhile, Bloomfield fell victim to Bedford North Lawrence and their airtight defense on Saturday. They lost 7-0 to the Stars. One reason for the loss might be the Cardinals' aggressive play style: Brady Hughes and Lance Workman were both handed yellow cards.

Shoals' draw gives them a new season record of 8-5-2. As for Bloomfield, they now have a losing record at 4-5-2.

Shoals beat Bloomfield by a goal in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, winning 3-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Shoals since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
