Tensas are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 42.4 points per game before their next contest. They and Basile go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. Tensas come in off of three low-scoring performances in a row, a trend the team is obviously eager to reverse.
Tensas have relied on a stalwart defense averaging points allowed per game, but that average took a hit last Friday. They were dealt a punishing 0-52 defeat at the hands of Sicily Island. Tensas's loss continues a disappointing trend for the squad, making it seven losses in a row.
Meanwhile, Basile brought a five-game winning streak into their match against Hamilton Christian last week; they left with a six-game streak. Basile made easy work of Hamilton Christian and carried off a 40-6 victory. With Basile ahead 27-0 at the half, the game was all but over already.
Basile's win lifted them to 8-2 while Tensas's loss dropped them down to 1-9. We'll see if Basile can repeat their recent success or if Tensas bounce back and reverse their fortune.
