After a short break, it's finally time for some more action. The St. Louis Crusaders will look to defend their home pitch on Monday against the Damien Monarchs at 4:15 p.m.
Damien will have to contend with a St. Louis team hungry for a victory, something the squad hasn't seen since November 22. Neither St. Louis nor Mid-Pacific Institute could gain the upper hand two weeks ago so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw.
Meanwhile, Saturday just wasn't the day for Damien's offense. They might have been a little too into the holiday spirit, gifting Punahou an easy 9-0 win. While losing is never fun, Damien can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Hawaii soccer rankings (they are ranked 36th, while Punahou are ranked third).
Damien's loss dropped their record down to 0-5-1. St. Louis' draw gives them a new season record of 2-4-3.
St. Louis got the 'W' when the teams last played back in January of 2025 against Damien by a conclusive 5-1 score. Do the Crusaders have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Monarchs turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
