The East Union Lancers will head out to face off against the Sierra Timberwolves at 6:15 p.m. on Thursday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
After two halves, East Union and Mountain House settled for a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile, while it was all tied up 0-0 at halftime, Sierra was not quite Oakdale's equal in the second half on Tuesday. They fell 2-0 to the Mustangs. The loss was a bit of a surprise, as the Timberwolves came into the matchup with a sizable advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 243rd, while the Mustangs are ranked 840th).
Sierra moved to 13-4 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak. East Union's draw gives them a new season record of 10-4-7.
Everything went East Union's way against Sierra in their previous matchup on January 7th, as East Union made off with a 3-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for East Union since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
