The Windsor Dukes will take on the Middlesex Chargers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
Windsor is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to 35 points two weeks ago, they were much more limited against King & Queen Central on Thursday. They fell 20-12 to the Royal Tigers.
Meanwhile, Middlesex couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. The game between them and Northumberland wasn't particularly close, with Middlesex falling 34-15. The loss continues a trend for the Chargers in their matchups with the Indians: they've now lost six in a row.
Middlesex might have lost, but man, Jaquan Griffin was a machine: he rushed for 186 yards and a touchdown. The dominant performance gave him a new career- in rushing yards.
Even if they lost, Middlesex's defensive line still kept up the pressure with three sacks. In that department, Lucien Hampton was the leader with two.
Windsor beat Middlesex 34-23 in their previous matchup back in September of 2023. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was Griffin, who rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown.
