After two games on the road, Alonso is heading back home. They will welcome the Sumner Stingrays at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Alonso is headed into the game having just suffered their biggest defeat since October 27, 2023 on Friday. They were outmatched by Plant City on the road and fell 59-28. The loss continues a trend for the Ravens in their matchups with the Raiders: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sumner). They blew past Strawberry Crest, posting a 45-7 victory at home. The high-scoring effort was just what the Stingrays needed considering they were shutout in their previous contest.
Sumner found their leader in underclassman Antonio Balaguer, who threw for 172 yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a rushing score. Taesean Robinson was another key player, picking up 87 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Sumner was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 248 rushing yards. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 89.8 rushing yards per game earlier this season, but in their last three matches they've averaged 149.3.
