We've got a battle between Eagles coming up. Canyon has given up an average of 3.6 goals per game this season, so hopefully the team got some defensive drills in this week.
Friday just wasn't the day for Canyon's offense. They lost 10-0 to West Plains last Friday. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 515th, while Wolves are ranked 236th).
Meanwhile, Decatur came tearing into Tuesday's match with nine straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4.6 goals), and they left with even more momentum. They blew past Wolves 6-1. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 11 contests by three goals or more this season.
Decatur pushed their record up to 14-5-2 with the victory, which was their sixth straight at home. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 35 goals over those six games. As for Canyon, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-13-1 record this season.
