“Trinity is a very good team and has been playing good soccer all season," Prince George product Anthony Preston says. "Every year, they are so dangerous and so dynamic. But we have played them well in the past, and we know we need to do it again. This is a massive matchup for us, and for them, so we expect their best.”
