Preview: Claiborne vs. Alcoa

If the MaxPreps state rankings hold true, the near future looks bright for Alcoa. Claiborne and Alcoa go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff match of the year. Alcoa have bulldozed their previous six opponents, so Claiborne might have their hands full.

Claiborne six-game streak of losses has finally come to an end. They made easy work of North Greene last week and carried off a 34-6 win. For those curious, yes, that was the biggest win Claiborne have assembled all season.

Meanwhile, Alcoa might be getting used to good results now that the squad has ten wins in a row. They were the clear victor by a 31-8 margin over Austin-East. The lopsided score is just par for the course this season for Alcoa, who can brag about nine blowout wins.

Claiborne took a serious blow against Alcoa the last time the two teams met, falling 0-55. The defeat knocked Claiborne out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at Alcoa with a vengeful fire.
