The Santa Barbara Dons will be taking part in a tournament against the Venice Gondoliers at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. Santa Barbara's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for five straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Last Tuesday, Santa Barbara didn't have quite enough to beat Pacifica and fell 2-1. While losing is never fun, the Dons can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 538th, while the Tritons are ranked 32nd).
