Preview: Del Mar Dons vs. Hill Falcons

The Del Mar Dons will be playing in front of their home fans against the Hill Falcons at 7:15 p.m. on Friday. Del Mar knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past five matchups -- so hopefully Hill likes a good challenge.

Last Friday, Del Mar got themselves on the board against Yerba Buena, but Yerba Buena never followed suit. They took their contest at home with ease, bagging a 35-0 victory over the Aztec Warriors. The result was nothing new for Del Mar, who have now won four contests by 26 points or more so far this season.

Andre Latimore continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 217 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries, while also throwing for 23 yards and a touchdown. Latimore is on a roll when it comes to rushing yards, as he's now rushed for 100 or more in the last five games he's played.

Meanwhile, Hill's game on Thursday was all tied up 15-15 at the half, but sadly for them it didn't stay that way. They took a 21-15 hit to the loss column at the hands of Evergreen Valley.

Del Mar's victory lifted them to 4-3 while Hill's defeat dropped them down to 1-6.

Everything came up roses for Del Mar against Hill in their previous matchup back in September of 2022 as the team secured a 50-8 win. Does Del Mar have another victory up their sleeve, or will Hill turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
