Memorial (2 - 3) is five games into its season, but it hasn't met anyone harder than the team challenging it this week. It and Union City (4 - 1) go head to head this Friday at 7:00 PM. Union City will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Memorial defense that has allowed an average of 34 points per game.
Memorial is still under .500 but has been making strides to fix that in its last two games. It came out on top in a nail-biter against Dickinson last week, sneaking past 24 - 21. The outcome was a nice jolt of excitement for Memorial after its previous game, where the margin was anything but close.
As for Union City, it brought the heat last game after its low-scoring effort (seven points) in the match before. The final score between it and East Side last week was a 76 - 0 blowout in Union City's favor. With three TDs, junior running back Izayah Reyes was a significant factor in the success.
We'll see which team can carry over its success and which team inevitably falls when Union City and Memorial clash.
