Football Preview: Hickory Hornets vs. Seneca Bobcats

Suggested Video

The Hickory Hornets's road trip will continue as they head out to face the Seneca Bobcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Hickory's defense has only allowed 11.8 points per game this season, so Seneca's offense will have their work cut out for them.

Hickory will head into Friday's game hoping to keep the good times rolling: they only won by two when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 35-point they dealt Corry on Friday. Hickory breezed by Corry to the tune of 42-7. The Hornets might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven contests by 26 points or more this season.

Meanwhile, after soaring to 41 points the game before, Seneca was a bit more limited in their match last Saturday. They were outmatched by Farrell on the road and fell 44-7. While losing is never fun, the Bobcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 428th, while the Steelers are ranked 192nd).

Seneca wouldn't let Farrell keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Seneca can thank Braedon Stankiewiz and Joe Brennan for forcing both of them. Brennan is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last nine games he's played.

With the defeat, Seneca broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 8-3. As for Hickory, their victory bumped their record up to 10-1.
