Soccer Game Preview: Murphy vs. Summit Charter

The Murphy Bulldogs will be defending their home pitch for the first time this season when they go up against the Summit Charter Bears at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.

Summit Charter better have a healthy lead at halftime, because if last week is any indication, that's when Murphy really gets things going. Murphy's defense stepped up to hand Cherokee a 3-0 shutout on Thursday. The win continues a trend for the Bulldogs in their matchups with the Braves: they've now won three in a row.

Meanwhile, Summit Charter gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Monday. Everything went their way against Blue Ridge Early College as Summit Charter made off with a 9-0 victory.
