Suggested Video

The ED White Commanders will take on the Westside Wolverines at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Hopefully ED White focused on turnovers this week as team gave up four last Friday.

ED White is leaving town to face Westside after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. ED White fell just short of Trinity Christian Academy by a score of 21-18. The Commanders gained 144 more yards on the day, but it was the Conquerors that made the best use of them.

Although ED White took the loss, they still got scores from King Boylston, King Mercer, and Rontrez Loyd.

Even if they lost, ED White's defense still kept up the pressure with three sacks. Demetrea Lamar was particularly dangerous to the passing game, picking up twohimself. His also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up two sacks and making seven total tackles. Another thorn in Trinity Christian Academy's side was Javon Johnson, who picked up a sack and made 11 total tackles.

Meanwhile, Westside was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their 12th straight defeat. They fell to Tocoi Creek 28-22. The match was a 7-7 toss-up at halftime, but the Wolverines couldn't quite close it out.

ED White took their win against Westside when the teams last played back in September of 2023 by a conclusive 22-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for ED White since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
