Serrano is 1-9 against Oak Hills since December of 2019 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Thursday. The Serrano Diamondbacks will take on the Oak Hills Bulldogs at 4:30 p.m.
Last Monday, Serrano and Sultana finished up on equal footing with a 2-2 draw.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Oak Hills). They never let Burroughs onto the board and left with an 8-0 victory on Tuesday. Given the Bulldogs' advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 126th, while the Burros are ranked 1075th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Oak Hills' offense was hitting Burroughs from everywhere, as six different players booted in a goal. Mollie Zielke led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by herself.
Oak Hills is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matches, which provided a nice bump to their 9-4-1 record this season. Those victories came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 24 goals over those nine contests. Serrano's draw makes their record 5-5-3 this season.
Serrano suffered a grim 3-0 defeat to Oak Hills in their previous meeting back in January of 2024. Can Serrano avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
