Granby's defense heads into the game hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed last Friday. They took their contest on the road with ease, bagging a 79-0 victory over Kecoughtan. Given the Comets' advantage in MaxPreps' Virginia football rankings (they are ranked 77th, while the Warriors are ranked 224th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Jshaun Reddin went supernova for Granby, throwing for 202 yards and six touchdowns while completing 88.9% of his passes. Eamon Cuffee was in the mix too, providing Granby with two touchdowns.

Another reason for the win was Granby's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for five sacks. In that department, Zakhary Cole was the leader with two. Kamari Cuffee was another major factor on D, picking up a sack, forcing a fumble, and making ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).

Meanwhile, Norview was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their tenth straight loss. They had to suffer through a 39-7 loss at the hands of Norcom.

Everything came up roses for Granby against Norview in their previous meeting back in September of 2023 as the team secured a 46-0 victory.
