The Woodside Wolverines will square off against the Kecoughtan Warriors at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Woodside is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Menchville just ended the team's seven-match winning streak on Thursday. They lost 9-1 to the Monarchs. While losing is never fun, Woodside can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Virginia soccer rankings (they are ranked 90th, while Menchville are ranked 35th).
Meanwhile, Kecoughtan kept a clean sheet against Bethel on Thursday. They narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Bruins 1-0. The result kept Kecoughtan happy, as they haven't lost a game since April 14th.
Kecoughtan is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-3-2 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up two goals over those five contests. As for Woodside, their loss dropped their record down to 8-2.
Woodside got the 'W' in their previous meeting back in March against Kecoughtan by a conclusive 5-0 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Wolverines since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
