The Smithfield-Selma Spartans will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on the Garner Trojans at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither Smithfield-Selma nor Garner posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Smithfield-Selma had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They were dealt a 32-0 loss at the hands of Clayton on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Garner didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Southeast Raleigh last Tuesday, but they still walked away with a 12-7 victory. The win continues a trend for the Trojans in their matchups with the Bulldogs: they've now won three in a row.
Smithfield-Selma better keep an eye on Aniyah Williams. She was instrumental in Garner's win, rushing for 143 yards and a pair of touchdowns on only nine carries. Williams' longest rush was for an impressive 60 yards, which helps to explain her lofty yards per carry total.
Garner didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. It was truly a group effort as Mckenzie Armwood, Mariah Ohlson, and Kameron Wendell-Wendt picked up one apiece. Ohlson is also crushing it when it comes to total tackles: she's made at least five every time she's taken the field this season.
