The Dixon Bulldogs will venture away from home to take on the Croatan Cougars at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Dixon will be looking to extend their current six-game winning streak.
Dixon had to skate by with only a one-goal margin when they last took the pitch, which might have inspired the three-goal drubbing they dealt Swansboro on Friday. Dixon was the clear victor by a 3-0 margin over Swansboro. Considering Dixon have won four matches by more than two goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
They hit Swansboro with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Brianna Weiss, Aileen Lowman, and Eva D.
Meanwhile, Croatan fought the good fight in their overtime contest against Richlands on Friday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Wildcats by a score of 2-1. Kaitlyn Sickles was hit with a yellow card, which may have had some impact on her (and the team's) ability to make aggressive plays.
Dixon's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-2-1. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 12 goals over those three games. As for Croatan, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-2-2.
