The Nyssa Bulldogs will venture away from home to challenge the La Grande Tigers at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Nyssa is coming into the contest on a five-game losing streak.
Nyssa's offense might be in the hot seat on Thursday considering what happened against Payette on Tuesday. They came up short against the Pirates, falling 4-0. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' soccer rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 170th in Oregon, while the Pirates are ranked 46th in Idaho).

Nyssa's loss dropped their record down to 1-7. As for La Grande, their victory bumped their record up to 2-3.
