The Hopi Bruins will venture away from home to face off against the Scottsdale Preparatory Academy Spartans at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.
Hopi can't be to happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They were dealt a 56-0 loss at the hands of Ganado. The Bruins haven't had much luck with the Hornets recently, as the team's come up short the last five times they've met.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 49-19, which was the final score in Scottsdale Preparatory Academy's tilt against Scottsdale Christian Academy on Friday. The Spartans were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 35-13.
The losing side was boosted by Judah Mizysak, who threw for 126 yards and two touchdowns.
Hopi was taken down by Scottsdale Preparatory Academy 27-0 in their previous meeting back in August of 2023. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Mizysak, who rushed for 133 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also threw for 188 yards and three touchdowns. Now that Hopi knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
