Boulder is a perfect 6-0 against Northglenn since October of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Panthers will head out to take on the Norsemen at 7:00 p.m. Boulder has given up an average of 47.1 points per game this season, but Friday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.

Boulder is headed into the matchup out to prove that what happened against Mountain Range on Thursday (when they were outscored in every quarter) was just a minor bump in the road. The Panthers lost 38-17 to the Mustangs.

Meanwhile, Northglenn never let their opponents score on Friday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Lakewood 49-0. The Norsemen might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three contests by 32 points or more this season.

Northglenn's win came from a few key players Boulder will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Avin Franklin, who picked up 106 receiving yards and one TD, and also punched in one score on the ground. Those 106 receiving yards gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Nicholas Reynolds, who rushed for 80 yards and one touchdown.

Northglenn was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 210 rushing yards. They are a perfect 3-0 when they've run for more than 200 yards.

Northglenn didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off four passes before the game was over. It was truly a group effort as William Gibbs, Franklin, Ethan Pino, and Reynolds picked up one apiece. Pino has been hot for a while, having also posted six or more total tackles the last ten times he's played. Franklin got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.

Boulder's defeat dropped their record down to 1-6. As for Northglenn, they now have a winning record of 4-3.

Boulder came out on top in a nail-biter against Northglenn in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, sneaking past 17-14. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Norsemen's Josiah'Ez Stevenson, who rushed for 163 yards and one TD while picking up 9.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 87 receiving yards and one score. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for the Panthers to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
