The South Cougars will venture away from home to challenge the Newton Railroaders at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. South is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 4.9 goals per game this season.
Last Thursday, South narrowly escaped with a win as the squad sidled past Valley Center 2-1. The Cougars wouldn't have won without Rodrigo Palacios, who scored the game-winner.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Newton). They put the hurt on Salina Central with a sharp 8-0 victory last Tuesday. The win was nothing new for the Railroaders as they're now sitting on three straight.
South's victory was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 11-1. As for Newton, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 6-4-1 record this season.
South skirted past Newton 1-0 in their previous matchup back in October of 2023. Does South have another victory up their sleeve, or will Newton turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
