The Bogalusa Lumberjacks will be defending their home-field for the first time this season they go up against the South Plaquemines Hurricanes at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Bogalusa is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They were beaten by Covington 48-6 on Friday.
Meanwhile, South Plaquemines took their matchup at home on Friday with ease, bagging a 35-8 victory over L.W. Higgins. The match was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 20-0.
South Plaquemines' win was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Jy'Heim"Chubb" Williams, who rushed for 127 yards on only seven carries. The dominant performance gave him a new career- in rushing yards. Rod Parker also helped with two touchdowns in total.
South Plaquemines' defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. In fact, those interceptions all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Alex Phillips. He is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last 13 games he's played dating back to last season. South Plaquemines got some further help from Deanel Mcgee: he made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Bogalusa didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against South Plaquemines when the teams last played back in September of 2018, but they still walked away with a 16-12 victory. Does Bogalusa have another victory up their sleeve, or will South Plaquemines turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
