The Benjamin Buccaneers will face off against the American Heritage Stallions at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Benjamin is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 3.9 goals per game this season.
Benjamin is looking to tack another W on to their season record, something they couldn't quite do against Olympic Heights on Wednesday. Neither Benjamin nor Olympic Heights could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw. The outcome might've been different if Desmon Flemming hadn't been hit with a yellow card, which no doubt limited his ability to make aggressive plays down the stretch.
Ford Cash was the only thing that stood between Benjamin and a shutout considering he scored both of Benjamin's goals, bringing his season total up to 16 goals.
Meanwhile, American Heritage came tearing into Tuesday's matchup with three straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4 goals) and they left with even more momentum. They never let the Falcons onto the board and left with a 2-0 win. Give the Stallions' defense some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.
American Heritage's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-1-1. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 14 goals over those four games. Benjamin's draw gives them a new season record of 8-1-1.
Benjamin came up short against American Heritage in their previous meeting back in December of 2023, falling 3-1. Will Benjamin have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other soccer content.
