Rancocas Valley and Lenape are an even 5-5 against one another since October of 2016, but not for long. The Red Devils will host the Indians at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. The two teams have had a bumpy ride up to this point with four consecutive losses for Rancocas Valley and 13 for Lenape dating back to last season.

On Saturday, Rancocas Valley lost to St. Augustine Prep on the road by a 28-14 margin.

Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 48-14, which was the final score in Lenape's tilt against Camden on Saturday. While losing is never fun, the Indians can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' New Jersey football rankings (they are ranked 135th, while the Panthers are ranked 14th).

Rancocas Valley took their victory against Lenape in their previous meeting back in October of 2024 by a conclusive 42-21 score. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Indians' Derrick Hammond, who rushed for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he won't be playing on Saturday, will it be easier for the Red Devils to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
