The Encina Bulldogs will square off against the John Adams Academy Rsvl/Lin Patriots at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
Encina is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of California's top teams: Leroy Greene Academy, who was ranked 12th at the time (Encina was ranked 17th). The Bulldogs lost 4-0 to the Lions last Friday. The contest was up for grabs at halftime, but sadly Encina struggled afterwards.
Encina was without their leading scorer, Aaliyah Aguilar Moreno, in Friday's matchup. With Aguilar Moreno sitting this one out, Marlena Mosqueda got some extra time on the pitch (80 vs. her season average of 49.3).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask John Adams Academy Rsvl/Lin). They blew past Forest Lake Christian 9-1 last Thursday. John Adams Academy Rsvl/Lin might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 13 games by three goals or more this season.
John Adams Academy Rsvl/Lin's victory was their eighth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 16-0-1. The road wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up three goals over those eight contests. As for Encina, their loss dropped their record down to 8-7-1.
Encina might still be hurting after the 8-1 defeat they got from John Adams Academy Rsvl/Lin in their previous matchup back in March. Will the Bulldogs have more luck at home instead of on the road?
