The Hibriten Panthers will head out on the road to square off against the North Iredell Raiders at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
Hibriten had to skate by with only a one-goal margin when they last took the pitch, which might have inspired the seven-goal drubbing they dealt Freedom on Thursday. The Panthers blew past the Patriots 7-0. Considering Hibriten have won seven matchups by more than two goals this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Meanwhile, for the first time since back in March, North Iredell was forced to settle for a draw on Thursday. Neither they nor St. Stephens could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw.
Hibriten is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-4-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 23 goals over those six games. North Iredell's draw makes their record 6-7-4 this season.
Hibriten came out on top in a nail-biter against North Iredell in their previous matchup back in March of 2024, sneaking past 1-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Panthers since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
