Preview: Centennial vs. Sheldon
If the MaxPreps state rankings hold true, the near future looks bright for Sheldon. Centennial and Sheldon go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff contest of the year. Sheldon will be hoping to continue their now three-game streak of scoring more points each contest than the last.
Sheldon can now show off six landslide victories after their most recent game last week. They steamrollered Grants Pass 56-6. Senior Michael Johnson Jr., who rushed for 83 yards and 3 touchdowns on 12 carries, was a major factor in Sheldon's success. Johnson Jr. has been a consistent playmaker for Sheldon as this was the 7th good game in a row from him.
Meanwhile, Centennial have had to suffer through a four-game losing streak, but that streak is no more. They were fully in charge, breezing past David Douglas 50-12. With Centennial ahead 43-0 at the half, the matchup was all but over already.
Their wins bumped Sheldon to 7-2 and Centennial to 4-5. We'll see who bends and who breaks when these two typically dominant teams face off.
