Suggested Video




The Sweetwater Wildcats will head out to square off against the Stone Memorial Panthers at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Sweetwater will be strutting in after a win while Stone Memorial will be coming in after a loss.

While Wildcats fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They enjoyed a cozy 42-26 victory over Sequoyah on Friday. The win was a breath of fresh air for the Wildcats as it put an end to their seven-game losing streak dating back to last season.

Meanwhile, Stone Memorial couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They came up short against Cookeville on Friday, falling 35-12. The Panthers were down 28-6 at the end of the third quarter, and things only got worse from there.

Sweetwater might still be hurting after the 40-16 defeat they got from Stone Memorial in their previous meeting back in August of 2023. Thankfully for Sweetwater, Nick Osmun (who threw for 104 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 51 yards and a touchdown) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
