The Snowflake Lobos will challenge the Blue Ridge Yellow Jackets at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Snowflake knows how to get goals on the board -- the team has finished with four goals or more in their past five matches -- so hopefully Blue Ridge likes a good challenge.
Snowflake is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Arizona's top teams: St. Johns, who was ranked 15th at the time (Snowflake was ranked tenth). The Lobos came out on top in a nail-biter against the Redskins on Tuesday, sneaking past 5-4. Five seems to be a good number for Snowflake as the squad scooped up a win with the same number of goals in their previous game.
Meanwhile, after a string of five wins, Blue Ridge's good fortune finally ran out on Tuesday. They and Show Low finished up their matchup with a 2-2 draw. The result kept Blue Ridge happy, as they haven't lost a game since September 20th.
Snowflake pushed their record up to 11-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. Those road wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 24 goals over those four contests. Blue Ridge's draw gives them a new season record of 8-3-1.
Snowflake might still be hurting after the 7-4 loss they got from Blue Ridge in their previous meeting back in September. Can the Lobos avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
