Piedmont had home field advantage when it faced off against Weddington two games ago, but the team wasn't able to capitalize. No surprise then that heading on the road didn't bring a better result. Piedmont has to be hurting after a devastating 36 - 7 defeat at the hands of Charlotte Catholic. The blowout was painful but not necessarily a surprise as Charlotte Catholic is ranked 3rd in the state, many places higher than Piedmont.
Piedmont got off to a sluggish start, posting zero total points in the first half. That left it at a 33 - 0 disadvantage. Even though the defense held Charlotte Catholic to three points in the second half, the team still couldn't find a way to get out on top.
The defeat dropped Piedmont's record to 2-6. It is on an unfortunate four-game losing streak. Charlotte Catholic kept its perfect season alive and rose to 8-0.
Both teams are aiming to improve upon those records in their upcoming games. Piedmont will battle it out against Monroe on Friday. After another low point total this last game, Piedmont has fallen into a real scoring funk its past three games; hopefully the team can find some way to reach the endzone more consistently. Meanwhile, Charlotte Catholic will square off against Parkwood this Friday at 7:30 PM.
