The Topsail Pirates will take on the Laney Buccaneers at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Topsail is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 2.9 goals per game this season.

Topsail is headed into Thursday's contest following a draw, the team's first since August 15. Neither they nor New Hanover could gain the upper hand on Thursday so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw. Topsail had to tread lightly for part of the match as three Topsail players were handed yellow cards, which could explain the final result.

Jax Lawrence and Timmy Hiles scored both of Topsail's goals, bringing their combined season tally to 19 goals.

Meanwhile, Laney entered their matchup against Ashley on Tuesday without any home losses, but there's a first time for everything. The Buccaneers fell just short of the Screaming Eagle by a score of 2-1. Having soared to a lofty six goals in the game before, Laney couldn't push the score so high this time.

Laney's defeat dropped their record down to 15-3-1. Topsail's draw makes their record 8-7-3 this season.
