Hunt has enjoyed the comforts of home their last five games, but now they'll head out on the road. They will take on the Fike Demons at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
After failing to score in their last game, Hunt made sure to put some goals up on the board against South Johnston two weeks ago. They were the clear victor by a 10-1 margin over the Trojans. Natalie Capps was a massive factor in the win, as she booted in three goals all by herself.
Meanwhile, Fike put another one in the bag two weeks ago to keep their perfect season alive. Their defense stepped up to hand Clayton a 6-0 shutout. Given Fike's advantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina soccer rankings (they are ranked 13th, while Clayton is ranked 182nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Hunt is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matches, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3-1 record this season. As for Fike, their win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 8-0.
Hunt was able to grind out a solid victory over Fike in their previous matchup back in May of 2023, winning 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Hunt since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
