Istrouma is 5-0 against Tara since October of 2019, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Friday. The Istrouma Indians will head out on the road to square off against the Tara Trojans at 7:00 p.m. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.

Istrouma's offense might be in the hot seat on Friday considering what happened against St. Michael on Friday. They fell 7-0 to the Warriors. The Indians haven't had much luck with the Warriors recently, as the team's come up short the last three times they've met.

Meanwhile, Tara was not able to break out of their rough patch last Thursday as the team picked up their 11th straight defeat dating back to last season. They took a blow against Brusly, falling 64-0.
