The Centennial Patriots will challenge the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. Centennial's defense has only allowed 0.5 goals per game this season, so Rocky Mountain's offense will have their work cut out for them.
Centennial's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Tuesday. They beat Kuna by a goal, winning 1-0. Given the Patriots' advantage in MaxPreps' Idaho soccer rankings (they are ranked fifth, while the Kavemen are ranked 29th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, for the first time this season, Rocky Mountain was forced to settle for a draw. Neither they nor Timberline could gain the upper hand on Tuesday so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw.
The victory made it two in a row for Centennial and bumps their season record up to 5-0-1. Rocky Mountain's draw gives them a new season record of 3-1-1.
Centennial beat Rocky Mountain 2-0 when the teams last played back in August of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Centennial since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
