Lazers to Play First-Place Sockers

The slumping Lazers will try to end their three-game losing streak against the Major Indoor Soccer League’s hottest team, the San Diego Sockers, tonight at 7:30 in the Forum.

This will be the second of four straight home games for the Lazers (10-10), who are only 3-6 at the Forum, losing their last four games there.

The Lazers have given up 19 goals in their last two games. The Sockers (18-6), in first place in the Western Division, have won 6 straight games and have scored 23 goals in their last 3 games.

Leading the league’s second-best offense is forward Branko Segota, the league’s No. 2 scorer with 46 points.

The Sockers have allowed a league-low 74 goals. No other team in the division has allowed fewer than 100.
