More to know:

 With this being an early season match-up for both teams, look for anyone of these players to step up. All of them are bidding for playing time and they know the best way to get it is to prove themselves.

If the Trojans win they are able to stop the Elks from using their speed on offense. They must contain them and not allow them to get passed their defenders. If the Elks win they can get pressure on the Trojans goalie early.
