The West Jefferson Roughriders will hit the road for the first time this season to take on the Northridge Vikings at 5:30 p.m. on Monday.

West Jefferson lost 5-1 to Graham Local last Wednesday.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Northridge). They never let North Union onto the board and left with a 9-0 victory on Saturday. The team's explosion on offense also rewarded the Vikings with their most commanding win of the season.

Their offense was hitting North Union from everywhere, as eight different players booted in a goal. Maddie McCarthy led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by herself.

West Jefferson's loss dropped their record down to 1-1. As for Northridge, they now have a winning record of 4-3.

West Jefferson might still be hurting after the 4-1 defeat they got from Northridge when the teams last played back in September of 2023. That contest was all but decided by halftime, at which point West Jefferson was down 4-0.
