Soccer Game Preview: Ursuline Academy vs. Cor Jesu Academy

The Ursuline Academy Bears will face off against the Cor Jesu Academy Chargers at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

Ursuline Academy is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Kirkwood just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Wednesday. They and the Pioneers finished up their match with a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked Ursuline Academy's first draw of the season.

Meanwhile, Cor Jesu Academy faced Nixa in a battle between two of the state's top teams on Saturday. The Chargers never let the Eagles get on the board and left with a 5-0 victory. The result was nothing new for Cor Jesu Academy, who have now won four games by three goals or more so far this season.

The win was the third in a row for Cor Jesu Academy, bringing their record up to 10-1. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 11 goals over those three contests. Ursuline Academy's draw makes their record 10-4-1 this season.

Ursuline Academy might still be hurting after the 7-2 defeat they got from Cor Jesu Academy when the teams last played back in April of 2024. Will the Bears have more luck at home instead of on the road? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other soccer content.
