The Giddings Buffaloes will face off against the Lorena Leopards at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Giddings is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Salado just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Monday. They fell 3-1 to the Eagles. While losing is never fun, the Buffaloes can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 441st, while the Eagles are ranked 146th).
Meanwhile, everything went Lorena's way against Hearne on Monday as Lorena made off with an 8-2 victory. The result was nothing new for the Leopards, who have now won nine matches by three goals or more so far this season.
Their offense was hitting Hearne from everywhere, as five different players booted in a goal. Dale Hudspeth led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for four goals all by himself.
Lorena is on a roll lately: they've won ten of their last 11 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-5 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 41 goals over those 11 games. Giddings' loss dropped their record down to 12-8.
