Freeland has gone a perfect 7-0 against Garber recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Friday. The Falcons will head out on the road to square off against the Dukes at 7:00 p.m. Freeland's defense has only allowed 10.2 points per game this season, so Garber's offense will have their work cut out for them.

Freeland is headed into the game after thoroughly thrashing Alma: they outscored them in every quarter. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Falcons blew the Panthers out of the water with a 42-13 final score. The result was nothing new for the Falcons, who have now won four contests by 29 points or more so far this season.

Meanwhile, Garber was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their third straight loss. They had to suffer through a 42-6 loss at the hands of Swan Valley. While losing is never fun, the Dukes can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Michigan football rankings (they are ranked 265th, while the Vikings are ranked 75th).

The win made it two in a row for Freeland and bumps their season record up to 4-1. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 45.0 points over those games. As for Garber, they now have a losing record of 2-3.

Everything came up roses for Freeland against Garber in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, as the squad secured a 46-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Falcons since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
