Two dominant backs in Jaiden Everett and Ronnell Dubose are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Chamberlain Storm will welcome the Jefferson Dragons at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.

Chamberlain took a loss when they played away from home back in September, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Friday. They blew past Leto, posting a 43-14 victory at home. With that win, the Storm brought their scoring average up to 27.3 points per game.

Anthony Ford went supernova for Chamberlain, rushing for 196 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. Everett was another key back, rushing for 67 yards and three touchdowns.
