St. Cloud Tech at Willmar
5 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 22

St. Cloud Tech and Willmar have sprinted out to undefeated starts, and they meet Thursday in a crucial Central Lakes Conference matchup that could decide which team will win the league crown. 

St. Cloud Tech is undefeated in its previous 29 league games, last losing to Willmar in 2013. Off to their best start in program history, the No. 9-2A Tigers (8-0, 6-0) look to withstand a threat to their reign while playing on the road.

The Cardinals routed Hutchinson last Saturday 11-0, marking their highest margin of victory this season. Willmar (9-0, 5-0) has allowed multiple goals in three of its past four games, a trend that it must halt against a St. Cloud Tech team that has scored at least three goals in all but two games this season.
