Patton have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They and Wheatmore go head to head on Friday at 7:30 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. The odds don't look promising for Patton, but the bigger the opponent is, the harder they fall.
Wheatmore stacked a sixth blowout onto their ever-increasing hoard. They made easy work of Providence Grove last week and carried off a 21-0 win. Among those leading the charge for Wheatmore was senior Alex Trexler, who picked up 116 yards on the ground on 12 carries. This marked the fourth game in which Trexler has rushed for over 100 yards.
After a string of four wins, Patton's good fortune finally ran out two weeks ago. They were dealt a punishing 0-44 loss at the hands of Hibriten. The lax defense was uncharacteristic for Patton, who until this match were averaging points allowed.
Wheatmore's victory lifted them to 10-1 while Patton's defeat dropped them down to 6-5. We'll find out if Wheatmore can add another positive mark to their record or if Patton can shake off the defeat and take the spring out of Wheatmore's step.
