Football Game Preview: Blanche Ely Tigers vs. Nova Titans

The Blanche Ely Tigers will head out on the road to take on the Nova Titans at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Blanche Ely is looking for their season's first victory.

Blanche Ely's offense might be in the hot seat on Wednesday considering what happened against Boyd Anderson on Tuesday. They were dealt a 28-0 defeat at the hands of the Cobras. While losing is never fun, the Tigers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida football rankings (they are ranked 216th, while the Cobras are ranked 49th).

Meanwhile, while Nova put up plenty of points on Monday, the same can't be said for Hollywood Hills. Nova blew past Hollywood Hills 34-0. The result was nothing new for the Titans, who have now won four games by 25 points or more so far this season.

Blanche Ely better keep an eye on Dezrihana Medina. She was instrumental in Nova's win, rushing for 107 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, while also throwing for 132 yards and two touchdowns.

Nova didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. Niani Bolden picked up that interception and then proceeded to rub salt in the wound by taking it back the other way for a touchdown. She got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.

The win made it two in a row for Nova and bumps their season record up to 6-1. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 0.0 points on average over those games. As for Blanche Ely, their loss dropped their record down to 0-6.

Blanche Ely couldn't quite finish off Nova in their previous matchup back in March of 2024 and fell 15-13. Can Blanche Ely avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
