Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Walhalla's road trip will continue as they head out to face Crescent at 6:00 p.m. on January 10th. Crescent will have to bring their A-game into this one, as they are staring down a pretty big deficit in the MaxPreps South Carolina Rankings (they are ranked 199th, while Walhalla is ranked 50th).
