The Lafayette Commodores will venture away from home to take on the Kosciusko Whippets at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday. Lafayette is coming into the contest hot, having won their last five games.
Lafayette proved they can win big on Tuesday (they won by three) and on Thursday they proved they can win the close ones too. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 2-1 win over Caledonia. The score was all tied up 1-1 at the break, but Lafayette were the better team in the second half.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Kosciusko). They blew past Choctaw Central 6-0 on Tuesday. The team's explosion on offense also rewarded Kosciusko with their most commanding win of the season.
The victory was their first on the road , bumping their record up to 4-6. As for Lafayette, their record is now 7-4.
Lafayette was able to grind out a solid win over Kosciusko when the teams last played back in December of 2024, winning 3-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Commodores since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
