The Kalida Wildcats will square off against the Continental Pirates at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Kalida is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Liberty-Benton just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Tuesday. They fell just short of the Eagles by a score of 1-0. While losing is never fun, the Wildcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 183rd, while the Eagles are ranked 25th).
Meanwhile, for the first time since back in August, Continental was forced to settle for a draw on Friday. They and Ottoville finished up on equal footing with a 0-0 draw.
Kalida's defeat dropped their record down to 6-2-2. Continental's draw makes their record 4-3-2 this season.
Kalida skirted past Continental 2-1 in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. Does Kalida have another victory up their sleeve, or will Continental turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
