Suggested Video

Dixon has been away from home for two games now, but on Friday they'll finally make their return. They will host the Sutter Huskies at 7:00 p.m. After both made easy work of their previous opponents, one won't be so lucky on Friday.

Last Friday, Dixon took their matchup on the road with ease, bagging a 34-6 win over El Camino.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sutter). They claimed a resounding 60-6 victory over Woodland at home. The Huskies might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three contests by 24 points or more this season.

Sutter's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Marcus Meras, who gained 95 total yards and three touchdowns, and Braden Scritchfield, who threw for 133 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes. Dominic Souza helped Scritchfield out on the ground, rushing for 50 yards and a touchdown, while also picking up 30 receiving yards.

He was just one part of a punishing run game: Sutter was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 284 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 195 rushing yards in six consecutive matches dating back to last season.

Dixon's win bumped their record up to 2-3. As for Sutter, their victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-1.

Dixon was dealt a bruising 63-6 defeat at the hands of Sutter in their previous matchup back in September of 2017. Thankfully for Dixon, Tyler Reynolds (who rushed for 95 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries, and also threw for 229 yards and two touchdowns while completing 92.9% of his passes) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
