Thursday just wasn't the day for Guilford's offense. They came up short against Boylan Catholic on Thursday, falling 7-0.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Jacobs). They never let Crystal Lake South get on the board and left with a 7-0 win on Tuesday. Surprisingly, this marked Jacobs' fourth straight game in which the away team has come away the victor.
They hit Crystal Lake South with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Gabby Wojtarowicz (4), Kylie Deegan (2), and Braelyn Schwartz.
The victory got Jacobs back to even at 7-7-4. As for Guilford, they dropped their record down to 8-11-1 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road.
Guilford might still be hurting after the 5-2 loss they got from Jacobs in their previous meeting back in March. Can the Vikings avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
