The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. This Friday Louisburg takes on Gates County in the first playoff game of the year. Gates County will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Louisburg defense that has allowed an average of 32 points per game.
Louisburg took its last contest against Weldon by a conclusive 56 - 28 score. Senior running back Quamon Person continued his outstanding stretch of play, as he rushed for 298 yards in the win, marking his 8th consecutive game with over 100 yards rushing. Person has now scored at least one TD in the past eight consecutive games.
Meanwhile, Gates County is still above.500 but has been slipping the past two games. It received a tough blow two weeks ago as it fell 37 - 20 to Plymouth.
Gates County's defeat dropped it to 7-4 while Louisburg's win brought it to 6-4. We'll see if Gates County can steal Louisburg's luck or if Louisburg records another victory instead.
