The Middle College Cougars will head out to challenge the New West Charter Eagles at 2:30 p.m. on Monday. Middle College is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 3.6 goals per game this season.
Middle College is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Math & Science College Preparatory just ended the team's five-game winning streak on Friday. They and the Sharks finished up their contest with a 1-1 draw. The result kept the Cougars happy, as they haven't lost a game since November 22, 2024.
Their goal came courtesy of Omar Torres, who's now up to five this season.
Meanwhile, New West Charter came tearing into Friday's match with three straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.3 goals) and they left with even more momentum. They were the clear victor by a 4-0 margin over the Panthers. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won four games by four goals or more so far this season.
New West Charter's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-3-1. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 22 goals over those three contests. With that draw, Middle College's record moves to 6-2-1.
Middle College beat New West Charter by a goal in their previous meeting back in January of 2024, winning 3-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Middle College since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
