Suggested Video

The Tippecanoe Red Devils are on the road again on Thursday to play the Archbishop Alter Knights at 7:00 p.m. One thing working in Tippecanoe's favor is that they have posted at least four goals in their last five matchups.

Tippecanoe's defense heads into the game hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Tuesday. They were the clear victor by an 8-0 margin over Sidney. The result was nothing new for the Red Devils, who have now won six matches by three goals or more so far this season.

Their offense was hitting Sidney from everywhere, as seven different players booted in a goal. Landon Haas led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by himself.

Meanwhile, Archbishop Alter beat Archbishop McNicholas 2-0 on Tuesday. Given the Knights' advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 44th, while the Rockets are ranked 151st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Tippecanoe is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight contests, which provided a nice bump to their 9-2-2 record this season. As for Archbishop Alter, they pushed their record up to 8-3-2 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road.

Tippecanoe took their win against Archbishop Alter in their previous matchup back in September of 2023 by a conclusive 3-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Tippecanoe since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
