The Bell Blue Raiders will venture away from home to square off against the V.R. Eaton Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Bell's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for five straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Last Friday, Bell didn't have quite enough to beat Timber Creek and fell 2-1. While losing is never fun, the Blue Raiders can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 224th, while the Falcons are ranked 38th).
