Soccer Preview: Valor Christian vs. Cherry Creek

Valor Christian has been on the road for two straight, but on Friday they'll finally head home. They will take on the Cherry Creek Bruins at 8:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither of those teams managed to put together many goals in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.

Last Tuesday, Valor Christian didn't have quite enough to beat Chatfield and fell 2-1. One reason for the loss might be Valor Christian's aggressive play style: Addison Buehler and Abby Wright were both handed yellow cards.

Valor Christian's goal came courtesy of Grace Brennan, who's now up to seven this season.

Meanwhile, Cherry Creek has not lost a match yet, a trend which continued in their latest game on Thursday. Neither they nor Cherokee Trail could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time Cherry Creek has been dealt a draw since back in April.

Valor Christian's loss dropped their record down to 7-3-2. Cherry Creek's draw makes their record 11-0-2 this season.

Valor Christian was able to grind out a solid victory over Cherry Creek in their previous matchup back in May of 2023, winning 2-0. Will Valor Christian repeat their success, or does Cherry Creek have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
