The Gibraltar Vikings are headed away from home for the first time to face off against the Ashwaubenon Jaguars at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Gibraltar can't be to happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Saturday. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of West Bend West.
Meanwhile, Ashwaubenon was not able to break out of their rough patch on Saturday as the team picked up their fourth straight defeat. They came up short against Wausau East, falling 6-2. Carter Nitke was hit with a yellow card, which may have had some impact on his (and the team's) ability to make aggressive plays.
Chase Beyer wasn't going to let Wausau East walk away unscathed as he scored both of Ashwaubenon's goals, bringing his season total up to two goals.
Gibraltar took their victory against Ashwaubenon when the teams last played back in August of 2023 by a conclusive 5-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Gibraltar since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
