The Graham Steers will challenge the Abilene Eagles at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Graham's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for four straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Graham and Springtown meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Monday.
