North Little Rock (11-0) and Conway (11-3) face off this Friday at 7:00 PM to determine whose season will come to a close. These are two of the top teams in the nation (Conway is ranked 59th, North Little Rock 17th), so it should shape up to be an exciting match.
North Little Rock can now show off five landslide victories after its most recent game. It had a great defensive game last week, holding Northside to zero points to set up the 34 - 0 win. North Little Rock was expected to win its matchup, but the MaxPreps national rankings did not forecast such a considerable margin.
Meanwhile, Conway extended its back-to-back wins into a three-game streak in its previous match. It was able to grind out a solid victory over Bentonville West last week, winning 48 - 40. Senior Michael George continued his outstanding stretch of play as he rushed for 274 yards in the triumph, marking his 10th consecutive game with over 100 yards rushing.
The last time they met, North Little Rock was the 38 - 7 victor. Will it come out on top again? We'll soon find out.
