The Texans will look to defend their home pitch  on Friday against the Hornets  at 6:00  p.m. Ray&#8217;s offense has struggled lately (the team hasn&#8217;t scored more than a single goal for four straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:2\">Ray&#8217;s defense heads into the  matchup  hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed  on Tuesday. They won by a  goal and slipped past Alice  1-0. While Ray didn&#8217;t have the best season last year (they finished 8-13-1), it&#8217;s starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:3\"> Meanwhile, Flour Bluff had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 3.7 goals) and they went ahead and made it seven on Tuesday. They blew past the Buccaneers 10-0. That looming  10-0 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Flour Bluff yet this  season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:4\"> Flour Bluff&#8217;s victory bumped their record up to 8-2. As for Ray, their  win was their first in the district, bumping their district record up to 1-2 and their overall record up to 6-3-1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:5\"> Ray might still be hurting after the  4-1 loss they got from Flour Bluff  when the teams last played  back in February of 2025. That  match was all but decided by halftime, at which point the Texans were down  3-0.<\/p>\n<p>Article generated by <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/infosentience.com\/\">infoSentience<\/a> based on data entered on MaxPreps<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"vs 02\/25\/25 &#8211; Home1-4 L01\/24\/25 &#8211; Away0-8 L01\/23\/24 &#8211; Home0-9 L01\/24\/23 &#8211; Away4-3 W02\/18\/22 &#8211; Away0-0 T+ 5&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":132668,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[155,157,156],"class_list":{"0":"post-132667","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-corpus-christi","8":"tag-corpus-christi","9":"tag-corpus-christi-headlines","10":"tag-corpus-christi-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132667\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/132668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
