Football Preview: Mansfield Summit Jaguars vs. Mansfield Tigers

Suggested Video

The Mansfield Summit Jaguars will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Mansfield Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Mansfield Summit is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They had to suffer through a 51-7 loss at the hands of Lewisville.

Meanwhile, Mansfield didn't have too much trouble with Horn on the road on Friday as they won 38-20.

Mansfield's win was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Braxton Van Cleave, who threw for 289 yards and a touchdown while completing 76.7% of his passes. Jacobe Hayes was Van Cleave's top target, picking up 97 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Mansfield was moving up and down the field and finished the game with 407 total yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Horn only gained 278.

Mansfield Summit couldn't quite finish off Mansfield when the teams last played back in September of 2023 and fell 39-37. Will Mansfield Summit have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more football content.
