The Piedmont Highlanders will square off against the Liberty Lions at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Piedmont fell victim to Berkeley and their airtight defense on Friday. They fell just short of the Yellowjackets by a score of 1-0.
Meanwhile, Liberty entered their tilt with Freedom on Friday with five consecutive wins but they'll enter their next game with six. They never let the Falcons onto the board and left with a 1-0 win. Given the Lions' advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 195th, while the Falcons are ranked 454th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
