The North Union Wildcats are on the road again on Saturday to play the Northridge Vikings at 12:30 p.m.
North Union is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to nine goals two weeks ago, they were much more limited against Indian Lake last Monday. They fell 3-1 to the Lakers. While losing is never fun, the Wildcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 392nd, while the Lakers are ranked 160th).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Northridge). They were the clear victor by a 7-3 margin over Heath on Wednesday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Vikings needed considering they were shutout in their previous matchup.
North Union's loss dropped their record down to 1-3. As for Northridge, the win also got them back to even at 3-3.
North Union might still be hurting after the 3-0 defeat they got from Northridge when the teams last played back in September of 2023. Can North Union avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
