Strawn (11-0) and Crowell (7-3) face off this Friday at 7:00 PM to determine whose season will come to a close. These are two of the top teams in the nation (Strawn is ranked 16th, Crowell 38th), so it should shape up to be an exciting match.
Strawn kept its home record unblemished after another positive outing on its own turf. It dominated last week, steamrollering Brookesmith 60 - 0. The margin wasn't a surprise since Strawn is ranked many positions ahead of Brookesmith in the MaxPreps nationional rankings.
Meanwhile, Crowell has netted another blowout to add to its collection (now totaling six) after its most recent game. It picked up a decisive 'W' against Lueders-Avoca last week, finishing up at 61 - 16.
The last time they met, Crowell was the decided 64 - 18 victor. This defeat knocked Strawn out of the playoffs, so expect it to come at Crowell with a vengeful fire.
