The Mankato West Scarlets will be defending their home pitch for the first time this season when they go up against the North Branch Vikings at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Mankato West is headed into their contest with North Branch looking for a result a bit more satisfying than what they got in their season opener against New Prague on Thursday. Neither the Scarlets nor the Trojans could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile, North Branch also started their season off with a less-than-sastisfying result. They played to a draw too, finishing 0-0 against Hermantown.
