The Great Oak Wolfpack and the Millikan Rams will compete for holiday cheer at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
If Millikan heads into halftime all tied up, they better play a good second half: that's when Great Oak took over last week. Great Oak narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past Citrus Valley 3-2. Given the Wolfpack's advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 234th, while the Blackhawks are ranked 650th), the result on Tuesday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Great Oak hit Citrus Valley with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Skye Merlin, Sophia Dias, and Brooklyn Beeson.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Millikan). They never let Compton onto the board and left with a 12-0 win on Thursday. The Rams might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four games by five goals or more this season.
The victory made it two in a row for Millikan and bumps their season record up to 4-2-2. As for Great Oak, they now have a winning record of 3-2-1.
