The Clayton Comets will head out to take on the Fuquay - Varina Bengals at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Clayton will be looking to extend their current six-game winning streak.
Clayton took a three-goal loss the last time they faced off against Cleveland, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference. The Comets won by a goal and slipped past the Rams 1-0. Ethan Hancock-Arroyo had the honor of scoring the game-winner for Clayton.
Meanwhile, Fuquay - Varina unfortunately witnessed the end of their three-match winning streak on Monday. They and Garner finished up their match with a 1-1 draw. The outcome might've been different if Weston Sampson hadn't been hit with a yellow card, which no doubt limited his ability to make aggressive plays down the stretch.
Clayton's victory bumped their record up to 11-2-1. Fuquay - Varina's draw gives them a new season record of 7-5-3.
Clayton was able to grind out a solid win over Fuquay - Varina in their previous meeting back in September, winning 3-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Comets since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
