The Prout Crusaders are on the road again on Wednesday to play the Coventry Oakers at 6:00 p.m.
Prout is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Rhode Island's top teams: Moses Brown, who was ranked 24th in their home state at the time (Prout was ranked seventh). Prout fell just short of Moses Brown by a score of 3-2 on Saturday. While the Crusaders didn't get the win, they did start the game off strong, beating the Quakers 1-0 in the first half.
Meanwhile, Coventry has been on a difficult stretch since their win on the first. They and Westerly finished up their match with a 0-0 draw on Thursday.
Prout's defeat ended a five-game streak of away wins and brought them to 11-3-1. With that draw, Coventry's record moves to 6-3-6.
Prout was able to grind out a solid win over Coventry in their previous matchup two weeks ago, winning 3-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Prout since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
