The Anderson Trojans will head out to face off against the Bastrop Bears at 7:45 p.m. on Friday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
Anderson is headed into Friday's contest following a draw, the team's first since January 23. They and McCallum finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw on Saturday.
Anderson's goal came courtesy of Austin Eckermann, who's now up to three this season.
Meanwhile, Bastrop hasn't lost a match since February 10th, a trend which continued in their latest game on Tuesday. Their defense stepped up to hand Crockett a 1-0 shutout. The final result isn't all that surprising considering Bastrop's considerable advantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 116th, while Crockett are ranked 685th).
Bastrop's win bumped their record up to 13-3-4. Anderson's draw makes their record 12-3-4 this season.
Everything went Anderson's way against Bastrop when the teams last played back in February, as Anderson made off with a 6-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Trojans since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
