The Perry Yellowjackets will head out to face off against the Avon Braves at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Perry's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for three straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
While Perry's win against Wheatland-Chili wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. The Yellowjackets' defense stepped up to hand the Wildcats a 1-0 shutout on Monday.
Meanwhile, Avon won against Geneseo last Saturday with one goal and they decided to stick to that goal total again on Thursday. The Braves sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 1-0 victory over Pavilion. Given Avon's advantage in MaxPreps' New York soccer rankings (they are ranked 200th, while Pavilion are ranked 522nd) , the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Perry was able to grind out a solid victory over Avon in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, winning 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Yellowjackets since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
