Football Preview: Polytechnic Parrots vs. Creekview Mustangs

Suggested Video

The Polytechnic Parrots are headed away from home for the first time to take on the Creekview Mustangs at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Polytechnic is leaving town to face Creekview after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Polytechnic was outmatched by Mineral Wells at home and fell 49-14. The Parrots were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 49-0.

Meanwhile, Creekview had to kick off their season on the road on Thursday, but they showed no ill effects. They pulled ahead with a 24-23 photo finish over Irving. The win was a breath of fresh air for the Mustangs as it put an end to their ten-game losing streak dating back to last season.

Creekview can attribute much of their success to Dre Richardson, who rushed for 62 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 74 yards and two touchdowns.

Polytechnic came up short against Creekview when the teams last played back in October of 2021, falling 19-13. Thankfully for Polytechnic, Garrett Palacio (who threw for 170 yards and two touchdowns while completing 81.3% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
