Ashford will be defending their home turf for the first time on Friday when they go up against Abbeville at 7:00 PM. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
Ashford had to travel to play their first game of the season, and the final result was worth the trip. Everything went their way against Rehobeth last Friday as they made off with a 31-7 win. Ashford was expected to win, but the margin was definitely larger than the rankings had forecast.
Meanwhile, Abbeville had to kick off their season on the road last week, but they showed no ill effects. They blew past McKenzie 22-0. The Abbeville offense checked out after the first half but had enough points banked to take the game anyway.
Their wins bumped Ashford to 1-0 and Abbeville to 1-0. With both Ashford and Abbeville swaggering in after impressive performances, it will be interesting to see which team steps up to teach the other some humility.
