The DuVal Tigers will face off against the Laurel Spartans at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
After dropping their season opener at home, Laurel is headed out to face a Tigers team ready to give their home crowd a win. DuVal received a blow on Saturday as they fell 22-6 to Douglass. The matchup was a 6-6 toss-up at halftime, but the Tigers couldn't quite close it out.
Meanwhile, Laurel strolled past Surrattsville with points to spare on Friday, taking the game 46-28. The Spartans pushed the score to 40-20 by the end of the third, a deficit the Hornets cut but never quite recovered from.
