The Crossland Cavaliers are on the road again on Monday to play the Central Falcons at 3:00 p.m.

Meanwhile, Central fell victim to Gwynn Park and their airtight defense on Thursday. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Yellowjackets. One reason for the loss might be the Falcons' aggressive play style: three Central players were handed yellow cards.
