Ysleta and Riverside are an even 5-5 against one another since March of 2017, but likely not for long. The Indians will look to defend their home pitch on Tuesday against the Rangers at 7:30 p.m. Ysleta's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for three straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.

Friday just wasn't the day for Ysleta's offense. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of San Elizario on Friday. One reason for the loss might be Ysleta's aggressive play style: Fernando Huerta and Adrian Escalante were both handed yellow cards.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Riverside). Their defense stepped up to hand Fabens a 5-0 shutout on Saturday. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for Riverside considering their one-goal performance the matchup before.

Ysleta's defeat dropped their record down to 7-6. As for Riverside, their victory bumped their record up to 5-9.
