Preview: Notre Dame vs. Episcopal
Notre Dame have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They hope to keep the momentum going despite having enjoyed some extra time before their next matchup against Episcopal on Friday. Episcopal will need to watch out since Notre Dame have now posted big point totals in their last five contests.
Notre Dame might be getting used to good results now that the squad has ten wins in a row. They took the match with ease, bagging a 55-19 victory over Lake Arthur two weeks ago. Notre Dame's success was spearheaded by the efforts of senior Noah Bourgeois, who rushed for 144 yards and 2 touchdowns on 12 carries, and junior C.J. Thibodeaux, who rushed for 59 yards and 3 touchdowns on 6 carries. Bourgeois has now scored at least one touchdown in the past ten games.
Meanwhile, their game last Friday wasn't at all kind to Episcopal, but their most recent game may have softened the blow. They came out on top against Holy Savior Menard by a score of 32-22. This was a playoff game, so the win was all the more important for Episcopal (and all the more bitter for Holy Savior Menard).
Everything came up roses for Notre Dame against Episcopal the last time the two teams met as the team secured a 45-0 win. Notre Dame's win shoved Episcopal out of the playoffs, so expect the team to have a target on their back in this one.
