Easley's game on Thursday was all tied up 0-0 at the half, but sadly for them it didn't stay that way. They fell 2-0 to the Mauldin Mavericks. That makes it the first time this season the Green Wave have let down their home crowd.
This is the second loss in a row for Easley and nudges their season record down to 3-2. Admittedly, the team was facing some tough opposition over that stretch, including 3-1-1 Greenville (their opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 68.3% over those games). As for Mauldin, the victory was the fourth in a row for them, bringing their record for this year to 4-2.
Easley will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Hillcrest at 7:00 p.m. on March 25th. Hillcrest's defense has only allowed 0.5 goals per game this season, so Easley's offense will have their work cut out for them. Mauldin also won't see the pitch for a while: their next game is against Greenville at 7:00 p.m. on March 25th. The two teams have allowed few goals on average, (Mauldin 0.3, Greenville 0.3) so any goals scored will be well earned.
