The Bridge City Cardinals will head out on the road to square off against the Jasper Bulldogs at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Bridge City comes in on seven and Jasper on three.
Bridge City had to skate by with only a one-goal margin when they last took the pitch, which might have inspired the eight-goal drubbing they dealt Vidor on Friday. Bridge City never let Vidor get on the board and left with an 8-0 victory. Considering the Cardinals have won seven matches by more than two goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Their offense was hitting Vidor from everywhere, as five different players booted in a goal. Nate Stafford led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by himself.
Meanwhile, Jasper gave up the first goal last Friday, but they didn't let that get them down. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Little Cypress-Mauriceville, sneaking past 2-1.
Bridge City pushed their record up to 14-4 with the win, which was their third straight at home. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up zero goals over those three contests. As for Jasper, their record is now 13-5.
Bridge City took their victory against Jasper in their previous matchup back in February by a conclusive 3-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bridge City since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
