The Lopez Lobos will take on the Rivera Raiders at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Friday, Lopez was able to grind out a solid win over Donna North, taking the game 5-3. Given the Lobos' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 28th, while the Chiefs are ranked 371st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Rivera). Everything went their way against Edcouch-Elsa on Friday as Rivera made off with a 6-2 victory. The win was nothing new for the Raiders as they're now sitting on three straight.
Lopez is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight matches, which somehow still isn't as good as their 13-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 46 goals over those eight games. As for Rivera, their victory bumped their record up to 9-2.
