The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. This Friday Bunkie takes on Amite in the first playoff game of the year. Amite will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Bunkie defense that has allowed an average of 34 points per game.
Bunkie got a somewhat close 26 - 20 victory over Lakeview last week.
Meanwhile, victory was within reach last week, but Amite ultimately lost 24 - 20 to St. Thomas Aquinas. That was its first defeat at home this season.
Amite's loss dropped it to 9-1 while Bunkie's win brought it to 3-7. Can Bunkie pick up its first back-to-back wins of the season, or will Amite prove too much? We'll see soon enough.
