The Crater Comets will venture away from home to challenge the Thurston Colts at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Crater's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for four straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Having struggled with three losses in a row, Crater turned things around against Ashland on Tuesday. Neither they nor the Grizzlies could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked Crater's first draw of the season.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Thurston, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Tuesday. They walked away with a 3-1 win over Churchill on Tuesday. The victory continues a trend for Thurston in their matchups with Churchill: they've now won four in a row.
Thurston's win bumped their record up to 6-3-1. Crater's draw makes their record 5-5-1 this season.
Crater came out on top in a nail-biter against Thurston in their previous meeting back in October of 2024, sneaking past 2-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Comets since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
