East Ridge is coming off back-to-back wins over Cretin-Derham Hall and Tartan, giving the Raptors momentum as they enter this week's matchup with crosstown rival Woodbury just a half game out of first place in the Suburban East Conference standings.
Senior midfielders Evan Woodward (28-3-31) and Danny Lowe (14-7-21) pace East Ridge (8-2, 5-1) in scoring, leading an offense that's recorded the third-most goals in league play.
The Royals (10-0, 5-0) have climbed to No. 7 in the state coaches' poll, thanks in large part to the dominance of senior attacker Trey Lervick (40-20-60), who leads the state in goals.
With the second-place Raptors battling for the league's top spot with first-place Woodbury, this is our pick for the Top Game of the Week.
