Preview: DeSoto vs. Mehlville
On Friday, Mehlville are packing up and heading on the road for the first time this season. They face off against DeSoto at 7:00 PM. Mehlville have the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency.
Mehlville couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 7-17 hit to the loss column at the hands of Lindbergh.
DeSoto had to travel to play their first game of the season, and the final result was worth the trip. Last Friday, they narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past Perryville 6-3. Having pegged this as anyone's game, the MaxPreps rankings were right on the nose.
DeSoto's victory lifted them to 1-0 while Mehlville's loss dropped them down to 0-1. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous game, so their meeting could be a low-scoring affair.
