The Cherry Creek Bruins will square off against the Liberty Lancers at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Cherry Creek is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Colorado's top teams: Northfield, who was ranked 22nd at the time (Cherry Creek was ranked third). The Bruins and the Nighthawks finished up their game with a 1-1 draw on Saturday. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time Cherry Creek have been dealt a draw since back in April.
Their goal came courtesy of Ava Willard, who's now up to seven this season.
Meanwhile, Liberty kept a clean sheet against Pueblo West on Friday. They beat the Cyclones by a goal, winning 1-0. The score was all tied up 0-0 at the break, but Liberty were the better team in the second half.
Liberty is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last ten matches. That's provided a massive bump to their 8-5-2 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 35 goals over those ten contests. With that draw, Cherry Creek's record moves to 11-1-3.
