Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, Mayde Creek should expect quite the challenge on Thursday. They take on Tompkins at Legacy Stadium at 6:30 PM. Mayde Creek strut in flaunting some offensive muscle with an average of 47 points per game.
If Mayde Creek were riding high off their 73-7 takedown of Alvin three weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Mayde Creek took a hard 28-44 fall against Cinco Ranch. Mayde Creek got a solid performance out of junior Jacoby Wilson, who rushed for 91 yards and 2 touchdowns; unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the victory. If you haven't heard Wilson's name lately, then you haven't been paying much attention: he has loomed large in their past five games.
After a string of five wins, Tompkins's good fortune finally ran out last Friday. They took a serious blow against Katy, falling 13-66. Tompkins were in a tough position by the half, with the score sitting at 13-35.
Everything went Mayde Creek's way against Tompkins the last time the two teams met as they made off with a 42-17 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Mayde Creek since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
