The Lambert Longhorns will square off against the Alpharetta Raiders at 8:00 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.
Lambert's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They narrowly escaped with a win as the squad sidled past South Forsyth 1-0.
Meanwhile, Tuesday just wasn't the day for Alpharetta's offense. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Lassiter on Tuesday. While losing is never fun, Alpharetta can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Georgia soccer rankings (they are ranked 141st, while Lassiter are ranked 18th).
Alpharetta has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-6 record this season. Lambert is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-3 record this season.
