UPDATE: Girls’ Soccer Showdown Against Middletown Not Today

In its toughest test of the season so far, the Narragansett High School girls’ soccer team will host their opponent from , the Middletown Islanders.

UPDATE 1:30 p.m. - Well, at least, they were supposed to face off today. But rain has forced the game to be postponed. A make-up date has not been announced yet.

Both teams come into the contest with gaudy records. Narragansett is undefeated in Division III play, 11-0, and their sole loss came in an Injury Fund game against Portsmouth, who is 7-4 in Division I this year.

Middletown is 9-1-1 in Division III play. Their sole loss came last week against the St. Raphael Academy, another undefeated team.

On paper though, the Mariners are the favorites for today’s game. Narragansett has outscored its opponents by 62 goals in 10 division games, even without junior forward Carla Porras for most of the year, who just recently returned to the team.

However, Narragansett also has a heavily-backloaded schedule. Its final four regular season games are all against teams with winning records.

The Mariners travel to West Warwick (7-6, 6-5 Division III) for a game 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. The Mariners host Moses Brown (9-3-1, 8-2-1 Division III) at 4 p.m. Thursday, and end the regular season by hosting the St. Raphael Academy (11-0-2, 10-0-1 Division III) and Burrillville (10-2-1, 10-1 Division III).
