The Othello Huskies will head out on the road to face off against the Prosser Mustangs at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Othello's defense has only allowed 14 points per game this season, so Prosser's offense will have their work cut out for them.
For some reason, the away team has come away with the win the last four times Othello and Ephrata have met, but the home crowd finally got their W on Friday. The Huskies walked away with a 33-21 victory over the Tigers. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for the Huskies considering their 13-point performance the game before.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 35 points the game before, Prosser was a bit more limited in their matchup on Thursday. They were outmatched by Royal and fell 50-3. While losing is never fun, the Mustangs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Washington football rankings (they are ranked 87th, while the Knights are ranked 20th).
Prosser's defeat dropped their record down to 4-2. As for Othello, their win bumped their record up to 5-1.
Things could have been worse for Othello, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 26-7 loss to Prosser in their previous meeting back in October of 2024. Thankfully for the Huskies, Jacob Rainer (who rushed for 20 yards and four touchdowns, and also threw for 181 yards on 16 of 23 attempts) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
