Suggested Video




The Parker Broncs will head out on the road to take on the Yuma Criminals at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

Parker can't be to happy about their upcoming road matchup considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Saturday. The match between them and Needles wasn't particularly close, with Parker falling 43-24. The loss was a bit of a surprise, as the Broncs came into the contest with a sizable advantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 151st in Arizona, while the Mustangs are ranked 641st in California).

Meanwhile, Yuma took a blow against River Valley on Friday, falling 41-14. The Criminals were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 26-0.

Parker was able to grind out a solid win over Yuma when the teams last played back in August of 2023, winning 34-27. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Yuma's Reginald Antone, who threw for 191 yards and two touchdowns on only 16 passes. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Parker to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
