The Oxnard Yellowjackets will take on the Pacifica Tritons at 5:15 p.m. on Tuesday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Pacifica better have a healthy lead at halftime, because if last week is any indication, that's when Oxnard really get things going. Oxnard put the hurt on Newbury Park with a sharp 4-1 win on Friday. Considering the Yellowjackets have won four matches by more than two goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Meanwhile, it was close, but back in December of 2024 Pacifica sidestepped Oaks Christian for a 3-2 victory. Given the Tritons' advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 33rd, while the Lions are ranked 722nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Oxnard is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight games, which provided a nice bump to their 6-4-2 record this season. Those victories came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 25 goals over those eight contests. As for Pacifica, the win made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 8-1-2.
Oxnard might still be hurting after the 4-0 loss they got from Pacifica in their previous meeting back in January of 2024. Can Oxnard avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
