My guess is that this will be a really tense game. It would be very fitting for Kiley Ezzell to score Newman's winning goal after so many clutch moments recently, but you could say the same thing for Jessica Mahoney at Pope John Paul II. Will it be them or someone else who makes the difference?
Newman and Pope John Paul II have one head-to-head result, with Newman winning 3-1 back in December. Always interesting to see how teams adjust for a rematch in a more important game.
Common Opponents:
Both have beaten Catholic NI, Hannan, Lusher, Sacred Heart, and Episcopal BR. Newman lost to Country Day 1-2, but Pope John Paul II beat Country Day 2-1.
Other notable results for Newman:
Lost to Ben Franklin 1-5
Tied Runnels 1-1
Tied Dutchtown 0-0
Beat University 1-0
Lost to Dominican 0-2
Other notable results for PJP:
Tied Baton Rouge 3-3

1-0 pjp at half. Newman with great opp in last 5. Keeper out of goal, ball taken to endline and crossed. Pjp defenders track back and intercept in 6yd box before clearing in front of empty goal.
