The Baker Hornets will head out to face off against the Davidson Warriors at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Baker is headed into the matchup after thoroughly thrashing Bryant: they outscored them in every quarter. Baker never let Bryant onto the board and left with a 25-0 victory on Friday. Given the Hornets' advantage in MaxPreps' Alabama football rankings (they are ranked 28th, while the Hurricanes are ranked 150th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
The critical scores for Baker came from Jawon Springs, Tristan Robinson, and Kristian White.
Baker's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Springs and Donovan Hudson. Baker got some further help from Jaylan Morris: he made 11 total tackles (5.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, Davidson took care of business in their home opener last Friday. They came out on top against Murphy by a score of 36-24.
Everything came up roses for Baker against Davidson in their previous matchup back in September of 2023 as the squad secured a 66-28 win. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Davidson's Derrick Jerome Butler, who rushed for 232 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.9 yards per carry, and also picked up 45 receiving yards and a touchdown. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Baker to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
