Soccer Preview: Rising Sun vs. Jac-Cen-Del
Rising Sun hasn't had much luck against Jac-Cen-Del recently, but that could start to change on Monday. The Rising Sun Shiners will face off against the Jac-Cen-Del Eagles at 5:00 p.m. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
