Suggested Video

The Custer County Bobcats will venture away from home to square off against the Holly Wildcats at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.

Custer County is headed into Friday's contest looking for a big change in momentum after dropping their eighth straight game dating back to last season on Friday. They had to suffer through a 42-6 loss at the hands of Plateau Valley.

Meanwhile, Holly had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They came up short against Dayspring Christian Academy on Saturday, falling 40-20. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss the Wildcats have suffered since September 9, 2023.

Holly's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Drayden McCray, who gained 113 total yards and a touchdown, and Jessie Pizarro, who rushed for 59 yards. McCray also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making nine total tackles and defending three passes in addition to snagging an interception.

Custer County was dealt a bruising 44-8 loss at the hands of Holly when the teams last played back in August of 2022. Can Custer County avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
