Midlothian (5-5) has a real challenge coming up -- the hardest it has met all year. This Friday it takes on Monacan (10-0) in the first playoff game of the year. Monacan will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Midlothian defense that has allowed an average of 30 points per game.
Last week Midlothian came up short against James River, falling 41 - 33.
Meanwhile, Monacan can now show off five landslide victories after its most recent game. It had all the answers against Huguenot last week, winning 35 - 13. The margin wasn't a surprise since Monacan is ranked many positions ahead of Huguenot in the MaxPreps state rankings.
The last time they met, Monacan was the decided 45 - 7 victor. Will Midlothian avenge its loss? We'll find out soon enough.
