The Guilford Grizzlies will venture away from home to challenge the Hand Tigers at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams each escaped with close wins against their previous opponents.
If Hand heads into halftime all tied up, they better play a good second half: that's when Guilford took over last week. Guilford never let Fairfield Prep onto the board and left with a 1-0 victory on Thursday. The Grizzlies' defense has been rock solid lately; the team hasn't given up a goal in their last five contests.
Meanwhile, Hand was not the first on the board last Thursday, but they got there more often. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Wilbur Cross , sneaking past 2-1. The win was all the more spectacular given the Tigers' disadvantage in MaxPreps' Connecticut soccer rankings (they are ranked 27th, while the Governors are ranked third).
Guilford's record now sits at 5-0. As for Hand, the victory for them keeps them at an undefeated 3-0-2.
