The Hartselle Tigers will face off against the Austin Black Bears at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Hartselle's defense has only allowed 0.5 goals per game this season, so Austin's offense will have their work cut out for them.
Hartselle is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering Muscle Shoals just ended the team's four-match winning streak on Tuesday. Neither they nor the Trojans could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile, Austin had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 2.8 goals) and they went ahead and made it five on Monday. They never let the Red Raiders get on the board and left with a 5-0 victory. Considering Austin have won three contests by more than two goals this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Austin's win bumped their record up to 6-1. Hartselle's draw makes their record 4-0-2 this season.
