The Davis Pirates are taking a road trip to take on the Eisenhower Cadets at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Davis will bounce into Saturday's contest after beating Moses Lake, who they hadn't topped in nine consecutive meetings. Davis sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 4-3 win over Moses Lake on Tuesday. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for the Pirates considering their one-goal performance the game before.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Eisenhower). They walked away with a 3-1 victory over Sunnyside on Tuesday. Alondra Perez had the honor of scoring the game-winner for the Cadets.
Eisenhower used a slightly different lineup for their bout with Sunnyside. Alekxia Deleon played for 80 minutes having averaged 59.8 this season and Karina Calderon got 74 vs. an average of 42. Calderon made the most of the opportunity, putting up an assist. A few more games like that and she might be seeing even more time going forward.
Davis now has a winning record of 3-2. As for Eisenhower, their record is now 2-3.
Davis suffered a grim 3-0 defeat to Eisenhower in their previous meeting back in October of 2023. Can Davis avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
