The Mountainburg Dragons will hit the road for the first time this season to challenge the Baptist Prep Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Mountainburg is headed out to face Baptist Prep after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. Mountainburg simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat Cedarville 50-22 at home. The victory was some much needed relief for the Dragons as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Baptist Prep strolled past Two Rivers with points to spare on Friday, taking the game 42-28.
Baptist Prep's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Nick Cumming, who threw for 435 yards and six touchdowns. Neal Priddy was in the mix as well, providing Baptist Prep with three touchdowns.
On the other side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Baptist Prep's defense and their three sacks. In fact, those sacks all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Levi Yager.
Things could have been worse for Mountainburg, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 20-6 loss to Baptist Prep in their previous matchup back in August of 2023. Thankfully for Mountainburg, Ryan Brent (who rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.1 yards per carry) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
