Airport is leaving town to face Riverview after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Airport was dealt a 45-7 defeat at the hands of Carlson on Thursday. The Jets were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 24-0.
Meanwhile, Riverview never let their opponents score on Thursday. They blew past Renaissance 38-0 at home. Given the Pirates' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan football rankings (they are ranked 108th, while the Phoenix are ranked 298th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Airport took their win against Riverview in their previous matchup back in August of 2023 by a conclusive 48-27. The rematch might be a little tougher for Airport since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
