Preview: Hazlehurst vs. Wilkinson County
Hazlehurst (5-2) squares off against Wilkinson County (3-4) this Friday at 7:00 PM. Wilkinson County's offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a Hazlehurst defense that got five sacks against Franklin County in its previous game.
Hazlehurst claimed a 28 - 15 victory over Franklin County last week. Sophomore Jahem James didn't have many carries in the previous game, but he had more touches this time and made them count as he ran for 127 yards and punched in one touchdown.
Meanwhile, having stolen a close one from Franklin County in its previous game, Wilkinson County got a taste of its own medicine against Jefferson County. Wilkinson County and Jefferson County were almost perfectly matched up last week, but Wilkinson County suffered an agonizing 16 - 15 defeat.
The last time they met, Hazlehurst walked away with a 40 - 26 win. It had a lot of yards that game (418) and will likely be setting its aim high again. Can it repeat its success? We'll find out this Friday.
