The Marcus Marauders will head out on the road to challenge the Coppell Cowboys at 7:30 p.m. on Monday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Marcus took a loss when they played away from home last Wednesday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Friday. Their defense stepped up to hand Little Elm an 8-0 shutout. Given the Marauders' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 12th, while the Lobos are ranked 140th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Coppell waltzed into their matchup on Friday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They were the clear victor by a 3-0 margin over the Jaguars. The score was close at the half, but the Cowboys pulled away in the second half with two goals.
They hit Flower Mound with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Neerali Kapadia, Monica Morales, and Summer Chen.
Marcus is on a roll lately: they've won ten of their last 13 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 54 goals over those 13 contests. Coppell's victory bumped their record up to 16-1-3.
