North Pocono will bounce into Saturday's contest after beating Wallenpaupack Area, who they hadn't topped in nine consecutive meetings. North Pocono came out on top against Wallenpaupack Area by a score of 5-3 on Wednesday. Considering the Trojans' offense had been struggling lately, the high-scoring outing was a much-needed turnaround.

Meanwhile, for the first time since back in August, Honesdale was forced to settle for a draw last Thursday. They and Wallenpaupack Area finished up their matchup with a 2-2 draw.

The victory snapped North Pocono's losing streak at four games and leaves them with a 5-4-1 record. Honesdale's draw gives them a new season record of 1-2-2.

Everything went North Pocono's way against Honesdale when the teams last played back in August of 2023 as North Pocono made off with a 4-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for North Pocono since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
