The Carroll Patriots will venture away from home to challenge the Ross Rams at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday. Carroll will be strutting in after a victory while Ross will be coming in after a defeat.
If Ross heads into halftime all tied up, they better play a good second half: that's when Carroll took over last week. Carroll sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 2-1 win over Chaminade Julienne Catholic on Wednesday. Given the Patriots' advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 30th, while the Eagles are ranked 126th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Thursday just wasn't the day for Ross' offense. They fell just short of Harrison by a score of 1-0 on Thursday.
Carroll pushed their record up to 13-2-1 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. As for Ross, their loss dropped their record down to 10-4-2.
Carroll came out on top in a nail-biter against Ross in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, sneaking past 2-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Carroll since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
