The Tupelo Golden Wave will head out to challenge the Germantown Mavericks at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. Tupelo's last three matches have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
Tupelo is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Mississippi's top teams: Brandon, who was ranked first at the time (Tupelo was ranked fourth). Neither Tupelo nor Brandon could gain the upper hand last Saturday so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Golden Wave's first draw of the season.
Meanwhile, Germantown kept a clean sheet against Starkville on Friday. Everything went their way against the Yellowjackets as they made off with a 6-0 win. The high-scoring performance was a welcome turnaround for the Mavericks' offense, which had struggled in the games prior.
Germantown's victory bumped their record up to 9-4-2. Tupelo's draw gives them a new season record of 14-3-1.
Tupelo suffered a grim 3-0 defeat to Germantown in their previous meeting back in December of 2024. Can Tupelo avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
