If the MaxPreps national rankings hold true, the near future looks bright for Hoxie. They will challenge Decatur Community on the road at 7:00 PM on Friday. Hoxie don't have the home-field advantage, but they do enjoy an advantage in the MaxPreps rankings.
Last Friday, Hoxie put the finishing touches on their 4th blowout victory of the season. They took the game and then some with a 54-0 win over Rawlins County. Senior Jared Kennedy, who punched in 2 rushing TDs and accumulated 78 passing yards, was a major factor in Hoxie's success. Kennedy has now scored at least one touchdown in the past six games.
Meanwhile, if Decatur Community were riding high off their 30-0 takedown of Rawlins County two weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Decatur Community took a hard 22-38 fall against Trego.
Hoxie simply couldn't be stopped the last time the two teams met, as they easily beat Decatur Community 50-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Hoxie since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
