Nettleton hasn't had much luck against Searcy recently, but that could start to change on Tuesday. The Raiders will square off against the Lions at 7:00 p.m.
Nettleton had taken Greene County Tech down for three straight games at home, but that winning streak came to an end last Thursday. The Raiders fell just short of the Golden Eagles by a score of 1-0. The match was a 0-0 toss-up at halftime, but Nettleton couldn't quite close it out.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Searcy). They never let West Memphis get on the board and left with a 13-0 victory last Thursday. Searcy might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won five contests by five goals or more this season.
Searcy's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-1-1. Those home victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up one goal over those four matchups. As for Nettleton, their loss dropped their record down to 2-7-1.
Nettleton might still be hurting after the 3-0 defeat they got from Searcy in their previous meeting back in April of 2025. Can the Raiders avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
