The Edison Tigers will head out to take on the Roosevelt Rough Riders at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. Edison will be strutting in after a win while Roosevelt will be coming in after a defeat.
Two weeks ago, Edison earned a 3-1 victory over Pajaro Valley. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 22nd, while the Grizzlies are ranked 807th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Elieser Reyes and Giovanni Cecado scored all three of Edison's goals, bringing their combined season tally to 26 goals.
Meanwhile, after a string of three wins, Roosevelt's good fortune finally ran out on Friday. They fell 4-2 to Clovis West.
Edison is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight matches, which somehow still isn't as good as their 12-1-1 record this season. Those victories came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 25 goals over those eight games. As for Roosevelt, their loss ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 7-5.
Everything went Edison's way against Roosevelt when the teams last played back in November of 2023, as Edison made off with a 3-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Edison since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
