Western Football at Azusa Pacific
Prediction:
In their last meeting the Wolves fell to Azusa Pacific 17-28.
This game will be won or lost on the back of the Western offense.
The first half of the season was riddled with weak play from the offensive side of the ball. However, in the past few games the offense has found solid footing and has been able to consistently find the endzone.
If the offense for the Wolves continues their streak of success and the defense plays the way they have all season, the Wolves will have no problem with Azusa Pacific.
Western Volleyball vs. University of Alaska Anchorage
Prediction:
Earlier in the season, the Wolves lost a tight set, 1-3. While the score seemed lopsided, the matches were anything but. Western’s defense needs to step up in the upcoming games in order to edge out the Seawolves. Western has struggled in their last few matches to halt their opponents point runs. This has caused the offense to constantly need to catch up in order to win games. If Western’s defense slows the Seawolves momentum, the Wolves stand the best chance to win.
Western Women’s Soccer at Saint Martin’s University
Prediction:
Saint Martin’s and Western have played once before this season. In that game the Wolves edged out Saint Martin’s University 1-0. With their final meeting marking the last game of the regular season, this game is a must-win for Western if they want to end their season on a high note. Saint Martin’s offense is weak, not being able to score a single point in their last two games. If Western’s offense is able to put up points, this will be an easy win for the Wolves.
