Two dominant backs in Jett Walker and Keaton Gordon are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Georgetown Eagles will challenge the Glenn Grizzlies at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. One thing working in Georgetown's favor is that they have posted at least 31 points every time they've taken the field this season.
Last Friday, Georgetown blew past East View, posting a 58-14 win at home. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won six games by 28 points or more so far this season.
Georgetown's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Kaleb Mcdougle, who threw for 215 yards and two touchdowns, and Walker, who rushed for 127 yards on only 14 carries. Walker's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 108 rushing yards. Xavier Warren also helped out with an impressive 84 receiving yards.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Georgetown was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 293 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 224 rushing yards in five consecutive matchups.
Meanwhile, Glenn was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fifth straight defeat. They fell to Cedar Park 34-28. While losing is never fun, the Grizzlies can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 384th, while the Timberwolves are ranked 148th).
Georgetown's victory was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. As for Glenn, their loss dropped their record down to 2-5.
Georgetown came out on top in a nail-biter against Glenn in their previous meeting back in October of 2023, sneaking past 44-41. The rematch might be a little tougher for Georgetown since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
