The Hendrickson Hawks will head out on the road to challenge the Anderson Trojans at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Last Friday, Hendrickson took a blow against College Station, falling 58-14. The defeat continues a trend for the Hawks in their matchups with the Cougars: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Anderson). They really took it to Lehman for the full four quarters, racking up a 64-7 win on the road. Given the Trojans' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 178th, while the Lobos are ranked 881st), the result on Thursday wasn't entirely unexpected.
It was another big night for Max Gerlich, who threw for 338 yards and six touchdowns while completing 85.7% of his passes. Another player making a difference was Tristan Waidelich, who picked up 101 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
Hendrickson's loss dropped their record down to 3-3. As for Anderson, they now have a winning record of 3-2.
Hendrickson beat Anderson 28-21 when the teams last played back in October of 2021. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Anderson's Colin Page, who rushed for 138 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 56 receiving yards. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Hendrickson to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
