The Central Cabarrus Vikings and the Northwest Cabarrus Trojans are set to duel on Monday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Central Cabarrus' offense might be in the hot seat on Monday considering what happened against Concord on Wednesday. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Spiders. While losing is never fun, the Vikings can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina soccer rankings (they are ranked 203rd, while the Spiders are ranked 101st).
Meanwhile, neither Northwest Cabarrus nor Carson could gain the upper hand on Wednesday so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw.
Central Cabarrus' loss was their third straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 8-5-2. Northwest Cabarrus' draw gives them a new season record of 7-4-5.
Everything went Central Cabarrus' way against Northwest Cabarrus in their previous meeting back in September, as Central Cabarrus made off with a 3-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Central Cabarrus since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
