The Keller Indians will square off against the Lake Ridge Eagles at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Keller's defense has only allowed 0.3 goals per game this season, so Lake Ridge's offense will have their work cut out for them.
Keller will roll into the contest after a wild two-game stretch: they didn't score any goals last Friday, then bounced right back against V.R. Eaton on Friday. Keller never let V.R. Eaton get on the board and left with a 4-0 victory. Considering the Indians have won ten games by more than two goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 43rd, while the Pioneers are ranked 395th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Kyleigh Pete and Rylee Ceraul scored both of Lake Ridge's goals, bringing their combined season tally to 19 goals.

Keller took their win against Lake Ridge in their previous matchup back in January of 2024 by a conclusive 3-0. Does Keller have another victory up their sleeve, or will Lake Ridge turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
