Record Breakdown: A Deeper Look

Both teams have had success in different areas:

• Head-to-Head Record:
  Neither team has faced off yet in the current season, so we do not have a head-to-head record between them.
• Common Opponents:
  There are no shared matchups recorded between these two teams so far this season, which means their separate successes cannot be compared directly in terms of common adversaries.
• Playoff Performance:
  Both teams are undefeated in playoff games with a 3-0 record for both Harper Woods and Goodrich. This shows that both teams are capable of stepping up in high-pressure situations.
• Home vs. Away Performance:
  • Harper Woods: Strong at home with a perfect 6-0 record, but they struggle more on the road, going 3-3.
  • Goodrich: Also dominant at home, with a 7-0 record, and they have a solid 4-1 away record.

League Performance Comparison

One of the most noticeable differences between the teams is their league performance. Goodrich has an unblemished 5-0 league record, which has helped them secure a solid position in the standings. On the other hand, Harper Woods has a 3-1 league record, reflecting a slightly more challenging league schedule.

Conclusion

Both Harper Woods and Goodrich have demonstrated impressive seasons in their own right. Goodrich’s overall record of 11-1, led by an average of 42.3 points per game, showcases their offensive firepower. Harper Woods, with a 10-3 record, has shown its resilience, particularly at home, where they remain undefeated.

While Goodrich has excelled in its league play and home games, Harper Woods is still a strong contender, especially in neutral-site and playoff matchups. Both teams look poised to make deep runs in the playoffs, and it will be exciting to see how they fare when they face off against common opponents or in potential postseason matchups.
