Logan View struggled against the majority of the competition last week, but found success against Omaha Brownell-Talbot.

Hopefully the wins over Omaha-Brownell Talbot will sort of jump start this team.

Logan View (2-16) is at Clarkson/Leigh (5-8) on Tuesday.

The Patriots lost to Twin River on Tuesday of last week, and fell to Oakland-Craig and Bancroft-Rosalie on Saturday at the Scribner-Snyder Tourney, but beat Winnebago, also at the Scribner-Snyder Tourney.

Clarkson/Leigh has come close to beating some good teams, but has struggled against others.

The Patriots have been up and down so far this year, and are trying to become more consistent.

If the Raiders can catch Clarkson/Leigh on an off night, Logan View might have a chance to win.

The Patriots have struggled to win close sets and put teams away when they've had the chance.

Logan View has to build on the things they did against Omaha Brownell-Talbot, and let those things lead to more success on Tuesday.

The Raiders can't be intimidated by Clarkson/Leigh. Logan View has to go out there and give it their best shot.

I don't know if the Raiders will win, but if they could take a set or two from the Patriots, that could be a good building block for the rest of the season.

Logan View is past moral victories, but if they do lose there are still probably going to be good things to take away from the loss.

I look for the Raiders to make things competitive on Tuesday. I think Logan View is capable of pushing Clarkson/Leigh to four or five sets.
