The Farmington Scorpions will take on the Piedra Vista Panthers at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Farmington is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of New Mexico's top teams: Cibola, who was ranked 14th in their home state at the time (Farmington was ranked 13th). Both finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw on Wednesday. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time the Scorpions have been dealt a draw since back in September.
Meanwhile, Piedra Vista has been on a difficult stretch since their win on September 28. They played to a draw too, finishing 1-1 against Rio Rancho.
Farmington's draw gives them a new season record of 10-8-2. Meanwhile, Piedra Vista's record is now 8-8-2.
Farmington beat Piedra Vista by a goal when the teams last played two weeks ago, winning 4-3. The rematch might be a little tougher for Farmington since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
