The Sunrise Mountain Miners will challenge the Chaparral Cowboys at 5:45 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Sunrise Mountain is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Nevada's top teams: Las Vegas, who was ranked third at the time (Sunrise Mountain was ranked 19th). Neither the Miners nor the Wildcats could gain the upper hand on Friday so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time Sunrise Mountain have been dealt a draw since back in September.
Meanwhile, Chaparral unfortunately witnessed the end of their four-match winning streak on Wednesday. They played to a draw too, finishing 1-1 against Mater Academy East Las Vegas. The result kept Chaparral happy, as they haven't lost a game since September 15th.
Sunrise Mountain's draw gives them a new season record of 9-2-4. Meanwhile, Chaparral's record is now 14-2-6.
Sunrise Mountain took their victory against Chaparral in their previous matchup back in September by a conclusive 4-1 score. Do the Miners have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Cowboys turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
