The Madison Patriots will be staying on the road on Monday to face off against the Draughn Wildcats at 5:00 p.m. Madison is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 4 goals per game this season.
Last Thursday, neither Madison nor North Buncombe could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 2-2 draw. Things got a bit chippy out on the turf as both teams were handed red cards: the Patriots' Avery Holland and the Black Hawks' Logan Douglas, Caleb Eavenson, and Cristobal Drago.
Holland was the only thing that stood between Madison and a shutout considering he scored both of Madison's goals, bringing his season total up to 19 goals.
