The Avenal Buccaneers will face off against the Caruthers Blue Raiders at 12:30 p.m. on Friday. Avenal's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for four straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Avenal is headed into Friday's following a draw, the team's first since November 22. Neither they nor Farmersville could gain the upper hand last Saturday so the two teams had to settle for a 1-1 draw.
Avenal's goal came courtesy of Sophia Aguilera, who's now up to three this season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Caruthers). They blew past Sierra 7-1 two weeks ago. Considering the Blue Raiders have won four matches by more than two goals this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
With that draw, Avenal's record moves to 5-3-2. As for Caruthers, they now have a winning record of 6-5-1.
Avenal might still be hurting after the 4-0 loss they got from Caruthers in their previous meeting back in December of 2023. Will Avenal have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
