Suggested Video

Taylor hasn't had much luck against Eastbrook recently, but that could start to change on Saturday. The Taylor Titans will challenge the Eastbrook Panthers at 9:00 a.m.

Taylor will bounce into Saturday's matchup after beating Blackford, who they hadn't topped in five consecutive meetings. Taylor put the hurt on Blackford with a sharp 5-1 win on Tuesday. Considering the Titans have won five matches by more than two goals this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

They hit Blackford with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Brayden Boothby (2), Landon Wiley, and Carlos Hinojosa.

Meanwhile, Eastbrook hasn't lost a match yet, a trend which continued in their latest game on Thursday. Neither they nor Huntington North could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw. The Panthers' loss signaled the end of their three-game winning streak.

Taylor now has a winning record of 6-5. With that draw, Eastbrook's record moves to 9-0-2.

Taylor came up short against Eastbrook when the teams last played back in September of 2023, falling 3-1. Can Taylor avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
