The Corona Panthers and the Hoover Tornados will round out the year against one another at at 12:00 p.m. on Monday.
Corona is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Mira Costa just ended the team's seven-game winning streak on Saturday. They fell just short of the Mustangs by a score of 2-1. Having soared to a lofty five goals in the game before, the Panthers couldn't push the score so high this time.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Hoover). Their defense stepped up to hand Shalhevet a 14-0 shutout two weeks ago. The result was nothing new for the Tornados, who have now won four games by three goals or more so far this season.
Their offense was hitting Shalhevet from everywhere, as ten different players booted in a goal. Areg Gevorgyan led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by himself.
Hoover pushed their record up to 5-1 with the victory, which was their fifth straight at home. Those victories came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 30 goals over those five matchups. As for Corona, their loss dropped their record down to 8-2-1.
