Hug had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 2.5 goals) and they went ahead and made it three on Wednesday. They came within a single goal of losing the streak, but they secured a 3-2 W against the Reed Raiders. The score was all tied up 1-1 at the break, but Hug were the better team in the second half.

Hug has now won 15 of their last 17 games at home. That's helped them to an 11-2-2 record this season. That said, the team wasn't facing the toughest opposition over that stretch, as it included 0-3-1 Spanish Springs and 3-16-1 Reed (their opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 32.6% over those games). As for Reed, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost 14 of their last 15 contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-16-1 record this season.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Hug will play host again on Friday to welcome North Valleys, where kickoff is scheduled at 8:00 p.m. North Valleys' last three matches have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
