The Yorktown Tigers are on the road again on Tuesday to play the Eastbrook Panthers at 5:00 a.m. Yorktown is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 4 goals per game this season.
Yorktown will roll into the matchup after a wild two-game stretch: they only put up one goal on Thursday, then bounced right back against Elwood on Saturday. Yorktown's defense stepped up to hand Elwood a 9-0 shutout. The result was nothing new for the Tigers, who have now won three contests by nine goals or more so far this season.
They hit Elwood with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from
Harper Mitchell (5),
Annie Mote (2), and
Kyler Frost.
Meanwhile, after a string of four wins, Eastbrook's good fortune finally ran out on Thursday. They and Lapel finished up on equal footing with a 2-2 draw. The result kept the Panthers happy, as they haven't lost a game since August 20th.
Yorktown's win bumped their record up to 5-3-1. Eastbrook's draw gives them a new season record of 4-1-1.
Yorktown skirted past Eastbrook 1-0 when the teams last played back in September of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Yorktown since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
