Preview: Malden Catholic vs. Belmont
Malden Catholic is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 32.13 points per game. They will square off against Belmont on Friday. Malden Catholic doesn't have the home-field advantage, but they do enjoy an advantage in the MaxPreps rankings.
While not quite a landslide, the contest between the Lancers and Cambridge Rindge & Latin last Friday was still a pretty decisive one as the Lancers wrapped it up with a 48-28 win.
Meanwhile, we expected Belmont to have trouble with the significantly higher-ranked Danvers, and they did. The Marauders found themselves the reluctant recipients of a vexing 41-7 punch to the gut against Danvers. The Marauders were in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 21 to nothing.
Malden Catholic's victory lifted them to 1-7 while Belmont's defeat dropped them down to 3-4. We'll see if the Lancers can repeat their recent success or if Belmont bounces back and reverse their fortune.
