Soccer Game Preview: Buchanan vs. New Buffalo

The Buchanan Bucks will head out to take on the New Buffalo Bison at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. Buchanan is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt wants to keep things rolling.

On Wednesday, Buchanan narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past Brandywine 2-1. Given Buchanan's advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan soccer rankings (they are ranked 109th, while Brandywine are ranked 279th) , the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, New Buffalo and Brandywine finished up on equal footing with a 0-0 draw on Friday.

Buchanan's victory bumped their record up to 6-0-1. New Buffalo's draw makes their record 0-2-2 this season.

Buchanan took their win against New Buffalo in their previous meeting back in April of 2024 by a conclusive 7-0 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bucks since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
