After each having a week off, the Evans Trojans and the Wekiva Mustangs will shake off the cobwebs and hit the field against one another at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The timing is sure in Evans' favor as the squad sits on three straight wins at home while Wekiva has been banged up by five consecutive losses on the road dating back to last season.
Evans is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They took their game last Friday with ease, bagging a 47-7 victory over Lake Howell. The contest was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 27-7.

Li'Darious Pryor produced another solid performance rushing for 87 yards and three scores on only 11 carries. That's the most rushing touchdowns he has posted since back in October of 2024. Michael Stinson was another key player, rushing for 73 yards and one TD on only six carries.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Evans proved: they limited Lake Howell to a paltry 0.8 yards per carry. The team can thank Fabiaun Coleman for the heroic effort on defense: he. Evans didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 8.2.
Meanwhile, Friday just wasn't the day for Wekiva's offense. They took a blow against Oviedo last Friday, falling 64-0. While losing is never fun, the Mustangs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida football rankings (they are ranked 356th, while the Lions are ranked 151st).
Wekiva's loss dropped their record down to 1-5. As for Evans, their win bumped their record up to 5-1.
