The Lemon Bay Manta Rays will head out to square off against the Gateway Eagles at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Lemon Bay's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for three straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Having struggled with three defeats in a row, Lemon Bay finally turned things around against Port Charlotte on Tuesday. They and the Pirates finished up their contest with a 1-1 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Manta Rays' first draw of the season.
Meanwhile, after some red-hot attacks on offense in their last three games, Gateway finally came back down to earth on Monday. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Mariner.
