Leander's defense heads into the contest hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They put the hurt on Lockhart with a sharp 5-0 win. Leander might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight matches by four goals or more this season.
Their offense was hitting Lockhart from everywhere, as five different players booted in a goal.
Meanwhile, Friday just wasn't the day for Glenn's offense. They came up short against Cedar Park on Friday, falling 4-0.
