The Locke Saints will take on the Foshay Wolverines at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. Both are strolling into their matches after big wins in their previous games.
Locke will roll into the contest after a wild two-game stretch: they didn't score any goals on Monday, then bounced right back against Dymally on Wednesday. Locke blew past Dymally 4-1. The result was nothing new for the Saints, who have now won four games by three goals or more so far this season.
They hit Dymally with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Maykol Ortega (2), Abner Sarceno, and Brandon Alvarado.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Foshay, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Wednesday.
