Looking ahead, Petaluma will look to defend their home field on Friday against Napa at 7:00 p.m. The Trojans will be up against the Grizzlies' rather soft defense (which has allowed 28.8 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. As for Justin-Siena, they will head out on the road to square off against American Canyon at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Wolves' defense has only allowed 14.2 points per game this season, so the Braves' offense will have their work cut out for them.
