Football Preview: Amanda-Clearcreek Aces vs. Unioto Shermans
The Amanda-Clearcreek Aces will be defending their home-field for the first time for the first time when they go up against the Unioto Shermans at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Amanda-Clearcreek is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They fell just short of Linden-McKinley by a score of 21-18 on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Unioto took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They blew past Vinton County, posting a 45-8 win at home.
Unioto's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Isaac Coy led the charge by throwing for 228 yards and four touchdowns while completing 83.3% of his passes. Caden Cutright was Coy's top target, picking up 154 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Unioto was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 213 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 152 rushing yards in four consecutive games dating back to last season.
Things could have been worse for Amanda-Clearcreek, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 29-10 loss to Unioto in their previous matchup back in August of 2023.
