The Conrad Chargers are taking a road trip to challenge the Pinkston Vikings at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Conrad is coming into the match hot, having won their last three games.
Last Monday, Conrad narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past Lincoln 2-1. Given the Chargers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 250th, while the Tigers are ranked 693rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Pha Sat was the driving force of Conrad's attack as he scored both of Conrad's goals, bringing his season total up to 24 goals.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Pinkston). They were the clear victor by a 9-1 margin over Madison on Monday. The win continues a trend for the Vikings in their matchups with the Trojans: they've now won eight in a row.
Pinkston's victory bumped their record up to 7-5. As for Conrad, they pushed their record up to 13-2 with the win, which was their third straight at home.
Conrad beat Pinkston 3-1 when the teams last played back in January. The rematch might be a little tougher for Conrad since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
