The Conway Wampus Cats are taking a road trip to take on the Bryant Hornets at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Conway is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Central just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Tuesday. Neither they nor the Tigers could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw. The result (or lack thereof) was the first time Conway have been dealt a draw since back in March.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bryant). They were the clear victors by a 7-1 margin over Jonesboro on Tuesday. Given Bryant's advantage in MaxPreps' Arkansas soccer rankings (they are ranked eighth, while Jonesboro are ranked 46th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
Bryant has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-2-1 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 14 goals over those five games. With that draw, Conway's record moves to 5-3-3.
Conway might still be hurting after the 3-0 loss they got from Bryant in their previous matchup back in March. Can the Wampus Cats avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
