Football Preview: Harrisburg Eagles vs. Phoenix Pirates

Suggested Video

The Harrisburg Eagles will head out on the road to face off against the Phoenix Pirates at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Harrisburg is leaving town to face Phoenix after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Harrisburg was dealt a 41-0 loss at the hands of Douglas on Monday. The Eagles' defeat continues a trend for the team, making it four in a row dating back to last season.

Meanwhile, Phoenix came into Friday's matchup having lost nine straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They blew past Brookings-Harbor, posting a 42-0 victory at home.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Phoenix to victory, but perhaps none more so than Cody Martin, who rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries. The team also got some help courtesy of Payton Turner, who threw for 146 yards and a touchdown.
