The Pitman Pride will take on the Grant Pacers at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Pitman is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Wednesday. They never let Merced get on the board and left with a 4-0 victory. Give the Pride's defense some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.
They hit Merced with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Giancarlo Nakamura, Francisco Villanueva, Zach Looney, and Davian Lizarraga.
Meanwhile, Grant hasn't lost a match since January 21st, a trend which continued in their latest game on Wednesday. Everything went their way against Johnson as Grant made off with a 3-0 win. Given the Pacers' advantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 46th, while the Warriors are ranked 454th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Pitman has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up two goals over those six games. Grant's victory bumped their record up to 13-3.
