Friday, 7:00 PM

Sacred Heart and Stringer meet up on Friday this week after opposite experiences in their previous matchups. Sacred Heart was crushed by Lumberton 46 - 15 last week. As for Stringer, it won a game that couldn't get any closer, slipping by Loyd Star 31 - 30.

With the halftime score sitting at 32 - 0, Sacred Heart just had too much of a disadvantage to overcome. One major problem for it was yardage: Sacred Heart's 167 total yards paled in comparison to Lumberton's 459. The loss dropped Sacred Heart's record to 3-2.

A win is a win, though Stringer didn't have the same dominating performance against Loyd Star as it did against Bogue Chitto the game before. Sophomore running back Anthony Thomas really separated himself from the pack -- literally. He rushed for 221 yards to give Stringer a significant boost. The win bumped Stringer's record up to 4-2.

We'll find out on Friday if it can snag another victory or if Sacred Heart will turn things around for itself.
