The McNair Eagles and the Franklin Yellowjackets will compete for holiday cheer at 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday. McNair's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for five straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.
Wednesday just wasn't the day for McNair's offense. They came up short against Weston Ranch on Wednesday, falling 10-0. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California soccer rankings (they are ranked 392nd, while the Cougars are ranked 155th).
Meanwhile, after a string of three wins, Franklin's good fortune finally ran out on Saturday. They and Sierra finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Yellowjackets' first draw of the season.
Their goal came courtesy of Loriauna Thongdee, who's now up to two this season.
With that draw, Franklin's record moves to 6-1-1. As for McNair, their loss dropped their record down to 2-5-1.
McNair might still be hurting after the 8-0 defeat they got from Franklin when the teams last played back in January. Will McNair have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
