The Clear Lake Falcons will head out on the road to challenge the Dickinson Gators at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
If Dickinson heads into halftime all tied up, they better play a good second half: that's when Clear Lake took over last week. Clear Lake's defense stepped up to hand Clear Springs a 2-0 shutout on Tuesday. Given the Falcons' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 44th, while the Chargers are ranked 269th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Adriano Bufo and Eli Toliver scored both of Clear Lake's goals, bringing their combined season tally to four goals.
Meanwhile, Dickinson got the win against Clear Brook on Tuesday by a conclusive 5-1. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Gators.
Clear Lake has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-3 record this season. Dickinson's record is now 9-6.
Clear Lake took their win against Dickinson in their previous meeting back in January by a conclusive 5-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Clear Lake since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
