The Benton Tigers will challenge the DeRidder Dragons at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
It was a proper cat-fight when Benton challenged Parkway on Tuesday. Benton and Parkway finished up their match with a 1-1 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Tigers' first draw of the season.
Their goal came courtesy of
Zian Toves, who's now up to six this season.
Meanwhile, DeRidder played to a draw too, finishing 1-1 against Sulphur.
DeRidder's draw makes their record 1-2-1 this season. Meanwhile, Benton's record is now 4-2-1.
Benton was able to grind out a solid victory over DeRidder in their previous meeting on November 4th, winning 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Benton since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
