Olympia has gone 9-1 against Bethel recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Bears will venture away from home to take on the Bison at 4:00 p.m. Neither of those teams managed to put together many runs in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.

Tuesday just wasn't the day for Olympia's offense. They took a 5-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Bonney Lake on Tuesday. The Bears have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Meanwhile, Bethel also failed to score in their most recent game. They came up short against Graham-Kapowsin on Tuesday, falling 21-0.

Olympia's loss dropped their record down to 10-9. As for Bethel, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost 12 of their last 15 contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-15 record this season.

Everything went Olympia's way against Bethel when the teams last played back in March, as Olympia made off with an 11-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bears since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
