Football Game Preview: Henrico vs. Varina

After two games on the road, Henrico is heading back home. They and Varina go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. The two teams have allowed few points on average (Henrico 15.44, Varina 13.5), so any points scored will be well earned.

Henrico might be getting used to good results now that the squad has five wins in a row. Everything came up roses for them against Armstrong/Kennedy last Friday as the team secured a 44-0 win. Followers of Henrico probably expected little less of the squad in a season in which they have collected six blowout victories.

Meanwhile, after a dominant victory in their match two weeks ago, Varina were humbled. They have to be aching after a bruising 12-33 loss to Highland Springs. That makes it the first time this season Varina have let down their home crowd.

The last time the two teams met, Henrico won a game that couldn't have been any closer, slipping by Varina 28-27. Will Henrico repeat their success, or does Varina have a better game plan this time around ? We'll find out soon enough.
