After a short break, it's finally time for some more action. The Westwood Panthers are taking a road trip to square off against the South Fork Bulldogs at 5:00 p.m. on Monday.
Westwood managed to keep up with Central until halftime back in December of 2024, but things quickly went downhill from there. Westwood might have been a little too into the holiday spirit, gifting Central an easy 4-0 win. The shutout was out of character for the Panthers seeing as the last time the team failed to score was back in November of 2024.
Meanwhile, South Fork came tearing into back in December of 2024's matchup with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 2.8 goals) and they left with even more momentum. Their defense stepped up to hand the Greyhounds a 4-0 shutout. Considering the Bulldogs have won seven games by more than two goals this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
South Fork has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine contests, which provided a nice bump to their 11-3-2 record this season. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 32 goals over those nine matchups. As for Westwood, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-5-1.
Westwood might still be hurting after the 8-0 defeat they got from South Fork in their previous meeting back in January of 2022. Can Westwood avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
