The Wadsworth Grizzlies are taking a road trip to square off against the Solon Comets at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Wadsworth has four straight wins, Solon has three straight defeats), but none of that matters once you're on the pitch.
Wadsworth had to skate by with only a one-goal margin when they last took the pitch, which might have inspired the ten-goal drubbing they dealt Garfield on Saturday. The Grizzlies' defense stepped up to hand the Rams a 10-0 shutout. Justin Lazzaretti was a massive factor in the win as he booted in three goals all by himself.
Meanwhile, Solon fell victim to Brecksville-Broadview Heights and their airtight defense on Tuesday. They came up short against the Bees, falling 5-0.
