The Greer Yellow Jackets will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Belton-Honea Path Bears at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Greer is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They were dealt a 43-0 loss at the hands of Boiling Springs on Friday. The defeat continues a trend for the Yellow Jackets in their matchups with the Bulldogs: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, Belton-Honea Path gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They claimed a resounding 45-14 victory over Broome at home. Given the Bears' advantage in MaxPreps' South Carolina football rankings (they are ranked 13th, while the Centurions are ranked 70th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Greer beat Belton-Honea Path 24-14 in their previous matchup back in October of 2021. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Belton-Honea Path's Nevada Billups, who picked up 143 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Greer to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
